Social Impact as a Service (SIaaS): How KIZAN. is making doing good, easy and sustainable.

5 minute read

How securing your business can also strengthen your supply chain, support others, and create real social impact, all as part of business as usual.

We believe security works best when it’s baked in from the start, not slapped on as an afterthought, and social impact works the same way. When it becomes part of how a business naturally operates, it delivers lasting benefit rather than one-off effects, like a single fundraiser that fades as quickly as it appears.

That’s not because businesses lack good intentions. Most already want to do good. The real challenge is time. When creating impact demands extra energy or ongoing effort, it’s often the first thing to slip as priorities stack up. That insight shaped how we built KIZAN., and why the KIZAN.Collective™ sits at its core: to make doing good something that happens naturally, not something that needs chasing.

To make that possible, we designed KIZAN. as a Social Impact as a Service (SIaaS) provider, so social impact becomes part of everyday operations, with no extra time, no extra effort, and no surprise costs. Instead of asking businesses to do more, we align impact with what they’re already doing to protect themselves.

By building social impact directly into your everyday operations and spending, KIZAN. makes it a natural outcome of investing in your own security. You focus on securing your business, and in doing so, you help create meaningful impact across the wider community, without added effort or expense.

As businesses take these everyday steps, KIZAN. brings them together. By sharing responsibility and pooling small, routine actions, the KIZAN.Collective™ turns individual investments into collective progress, creating real, lasting impact that grows over time and strengthens the entire community.

First up: the habit economy, powered by KIZAN.Creds™

We started with a simple question: what’s the first step to making SIaaS actually work in the real world? The answer turned out to be surprisingly straightforward: reward the right behaviours, especially the ones that help businesses thrive. That thinking led to: KIZAN.Creds™.

Every time you invest in cyber security with KIZAN., you earn credits for strengthening your own digital resilience. But those credits don’t stop there. They’re designed to fuel real social value too. Over time, they gently nudge the right habits into place, habits that make your business stronger while helping to strengthen the wider community.

Because even the most secure organisation is only as resilient as the suppliers behind it, KIZAN.Creds™ are built to lift more than just your own business. As you invest in your security, you also gain the ability to strengthen the partners you rely on every day, making resilience a shared outcome rather than an individual one.

That’s where the real power of KIZAN.Creds™ comes in. They aren’t just a reward, they’re a choice. With every credit you earn, you decide how the impact is shared. You can:

  • Redeem them for your business – unlock discounts on KIZAN. services or access extra support to help your business grow.

  • Share them with your supply chain – pass credits to your most needed supply chain partners so they can boost their security too, strengthening the network you rely on every day. Learn more about our Supplier Sponsorship Scheme.

  • Contribute them to the Collective – add your credits to the KIZAN.Collective™ fund, supporting smaller businesses, charities, non‑profits and others who need help meeting essential standards.

Of course, you don’t have to choose just one path. You can keep some credits, share others, and contribute the rest. It’s entirely your call. And because this all happens as part of investing in your own security, it adds no extra time, effort, or cost to your business.

With KIZAN., the right habits form naturally, weaving social impact into everyday operations while supporting your security and growth. And this is where it all comes together: KIZAN.Creds™ turn those everyday decisions into tangible wins, for your business and for the wider digital community, fuelling the Collective with every credit you choose to pass on.

From credits to community: the Collective in action.

The KIZAN.Collective™ is all about turning lots of small, everyday contributions into something much bigger. Businesses can get involved in two ways:

  1. Contribute to the Collective
    If you’re in a position to give, you can contribute your KIZAN.Creds™. Every contribution helps other organisations, often smaller businesses, charities, or not-for-profits, access the support they vitally need to meet essential security standards and stay secure.

  2. Use the Collective
    If your business needs a boost, the Collective is there to support you. It makes meeting essential security standards straightforward and gives you access to expert help without extra cost or admin barriers. This isn’t a one‑time pot of money, it’s an accessible, ongoing fund designed to support you as part of your normal operations.

By participating, everyone benefits. The KIZAN. ecosystem encourages repeatable, habitual contributions, and by pooling effort, impact grows faster than any single organisation could achieve on its own. The result is a stronger, more resilient, and more socially impactful ecosystem.

And the best part? This isn’t some extra “social impact tax.” KIZAN. keeps pricing fair and covers the social impact from our own pocket with no extra or hidden cost to you.

It’s Social Impact as a Service: effortless for you, fair for everyone, and actually works.

Why it actually matters: turning everyday actions into real impact.

The KIZAN.Collective™ isn’t just about feeling good, it’s about making a measurable, sustainable difference. By baking social impact into everyday operations, businesses can do well, whilst doing good:

  • Stronger networks - Every partner and supplier you work with can become more resilient, making your whole ecosystem smarter and safer.

  • Support for charities, not-for-profits, startups, SMEs and anyone else who needs support - Access to shared resources helps smaller businesses strengthen their security and grow sustainably.

  • Impact that sticks - Small, consistent contributions over time create far bigger, longer-lasting results than one-off donations or volunteer events.

  • Win-win for all - Businesses build reputation, ESG credentials, and stronger relationships - all by doing what they already do, but smarter.

Because the KIZAN.Collective™ is Social Impact as a Service, it’s effortless, cost-effective, and can be built into your everyday operations at no extra cost. Your business invests in itself whilst contributing to something bigger, turning routine actions into real, measurable impact.

SIaaS: Building a new era where cyber security creates social impact.

We’ve built the KIZAN.Collective™ to be more than just cyber security or social impact: it’s about making good habits automatic, not optional. It turns the desire to do good into a repeatable, shareable, and measurable way to strengthen the wider business community.

Whether your business wants to contribute, access support, or both, the Collective makes it easy to create meaningful impact, without adding extra work. By pooling small, everyday efforts, businesses can achieve far more together than any one could alone. Because in a connected world, no one thrives alone - and we believe doing good doesn’t have to be hard.
