TBL International Ltd., the operator of Titanic Belfast – the world’s most authentic Titanic visitor experience – has announced a strategic partnership with Antrim based Outsource Group to deliver a comprehensive digital transformation and cyber security enhancement programme.
Located on the very site where RMS Titanic was designed, built, and launched, Titanic Belfast has welcomed almost 9 million visitors from more than 145 countries since opening in 2012. As a cornerstone of Northern Ireland’s tourism landscape, the attraction has contributed £430 million in additional visitor spend and inspired £60 million in heritage preservation across the Titanic Quarter in only the first ten years of the attraction opening.
To support its continued growth and ensure a seamless, secure visitor experience, TBL International is investing in world-class IT infrastructure. The partnership with Outsource Group will provide a suite of services including IT managed services, on-site support for 24/7 operations, and expert cyber security consultancy.
“This partnership marks a significant step in our digital journey,” said Siobhan Lynch, Deputy Chief Executive, Director of Operations at TBL International. “By working with Outsource Group, we are future-proofing our operations and ensuring that our guests and clients benefit from the highest standards of information security and service delivery.”
Outsource Group has over 25 years of experience in system implementation and support, complemented by the strategic expertise of its ANSEC team. The collaboration will also see TBL International onboarded to the S-Core platform – Outsource Group’s market leading security focused managed service offering, built on a proven technology & services stack, enhancing operational efficiency and cyber resilience.
Visitors and event clients alike will benefit from improved speed of access, enhanced on-site support, and a more integrated digital experience. The initiative underscores TBL International’s commitment to innovation, security, and excellence in visitor engagement.
“We are proud to support such an iconic institution on its digital transformation,” said Terry Moore, CEO of Outsource Group. “Our goal is to deliver robust, scalable solutions that empower TBL International to thrive in a digital-first world.”

Outsource Partners with Palo Alto
Outsource Group partners with Palo Alto in significant new deal
Outsource Group has partnered with California-based Palo Alto Networks – the world’s leading cyber security firm – in a new deal that sees the Antrim-headquartered company become the only Palo Alto Cortex Managed Security Service Provider Partner (MSSP) on the island of Ireland.
The arrangement is expected to be worth several million pounds in new business to Outsource Group. The exclusive status means Outsource Group can sell, configure and deploy Palo Alto Networks’ highly regarded suite of AI-powered cyber security products across Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland with Palo Alto’s full confidence and support.
The company has invested over one million pounds on its journey to become an approved Palo Alto Cortex MSSP. This has included investment in staff, training and cutting-edge technology, achieving a range of technical certifications and a rigorous Palo Alto Networks assessment process.
Terry Moore CEO Outsource Group says that this is another step on Outsource Group’s journey to become “the number one security partner of choice for businesses across the UK and Ireland”.
“As a security first focused business, it made perfect sense for us to partner with Palo Alto Networks, the global leader in cyber security, as we continue to build on our existing security focused solutions and services,” he says.
“This gives us a unique position in the marketplace, combining Outsource Group’s expertise, knowledge and experience on the ground in the UK and Ireland, with Palo Alto’s technology which is breaking new ground in the use of AI for cyber security defence,” he continues.
“The rigorous assessment undertaken by Palo Alto of Outsource Group’s expertise and capabilities and the ultimate agreement to enter into a working partnership and formal appointment of Outsource as the only Cortex MSSP on the island is a strong endorsement of our strategic security first approach,” he adds.
The new arrangement represents the latest significant investment by Outsource Group in its cyber security offering. In recent years, Outsource Group also acquired ANSEC AI, considered one of the leading cyber security consultancy businesses in the UK and Ireland. The company currently counts some of the largest, most complex and most cyber security-focused organisations in Europe as customers.
