Local websites
Certus Cybersecurity specializes in providing top-tier information security services for companies developing innovative technologies. From software and connected devices to cloud platforms and payment systems. Their expertise lies in uncovering exploitable vulnerabilities and misconfigurations in digital products. When they approached us, the main goal was to create a website that would truly reflect the nature of their work and highlight their professionalism.
The existing website fell short of that mission. It lacked a clear brand voice, had no strong connection to cybersecurity as a theme, and suffered from slow performance and poor maintainability. To solve these issues, Qflux proposed a complete branding refresh, a UX audit, and the development of a solid, scalable web foundation.
We began by analyzing the current layouts. The heavy use of generic cityscape stock photography didn’t resonate with the company’s focus, leaving their brand identity ambiguous. Based on our findings, we suggested adjustments to better emphasize Certus Cybersecurity’s core values and technical expertise.
To crystallize the direction, we presented three mood boards, all rooted in hi-tech aesthetics. The client chose the lighter concept, built around airy geometric forms like cubes and lines. This visual language perfectly reflected the advanced systems Certus protects while keeping the design approachable and modern.
Once the concept was approved, we expanded it into a coherent brand identity. We developed a library of design elements, including post templates, custom illustrations for case studies, and refined content layouts to unify the visual tone. Iconography and graphics were updated to ensure consistency across all digital channels, and we compiled a comprehensive artboard with reusable illustration assets for the client’s future use.
The new site required a robust CMS solution. We chose Laravel, a framework that offers scalability, stability, and ease of maintenance without constant plugin updates. Its intuitive interface also allowed the Certus Cybersecurity team to manage content independently. As part of the redesign, we built their blog and case study pages from scratch, ensuring the company’s thought leadership and expertise would be front and center.
To strengthen the brand offline as well, we designed a set of promotional materials. Business cards, branded merchandise, and corporate swag were created to reflect Certus Cybersecurity’s professional image and provide memorable touchpoints for both the team and their clients.
Impressed with the outcome, Certus Cybersecurity further entrusted Qflux with redesigning their corporate presentations. The first presentation highlighted the company’s workflow and services, while the second served as a polished business proposal. Both were crafted in a unified brand style, with reusable slides to support long-term communication needs.
Since the original slides were dense with text, we focused on simplifying layouts and splitting content-heavy slides into digestible parts. The result was a set of engaging, easy-to-understand presentations that conveyed authority while remaining visually appealing.
The client was so impressed by our work, so the Certus Cybersecurity team also asked us to redesign their presentations — the first being an overview of their working processes and services and the second serving as a business proposal. We were tasked to produce brand-related slides in one consistent style so the client could reuse them, which would be a long-term decision.
Since initial presentations were content-heavy, we needed to find a smart solution to lessen the cognitive load. For that reason, we chose simple layouts and divided some slides into two to escape the textual clutter. Thus, we designed reusable brand slides that were exceptionally effective at impressing the target audience while being easy to comprehend.
