Technology Stewardship for Private Estates

Discreet leadership | Clear control | Reduced risk.

Fidare provides independent technology stewardship for private estates where complexity has accumulated across properties, staff, and specialist suppliers. We establish control, reduce privacy and cyber exposure, and keep everything calm and reliable.

You might be here because…

“Too many suppliers, no single owner.”
“Shared credentials and vendor-held admin access.”
“Technology that works until it matters most.”
“A transition is coming and nobody trusts the documentation.”

"If you cannot clearly answer “who has access to what, and why”, the estate is exposed."

_{- Robert Smith}

What we typically find...

Admin access is held by a supplier, with no clean handover.
Shared Wi-Fi and alarm credentials circulating for years, unchanged.
Cameras, gates, AV and networks are all installed in isolation.
Apple IDs, email accounts and backups are tied to individuals.
Documentation that does not exist beyond staff changes.

"I started Fidare because I kept seeing the same pattern. Expensive systems, but no actual control."

_{- Robert Smith}

Technology should be calm, reliable, and under control.

In most estates, technology accumulates over time. Multiple properties, multiple vendors, shared credentials, legacy systems, and unclear ownership. The result is avoidable risk, inconvenience, and a dependency on whoever last installed it.

Fidare exists to bring accountability, and resilience without disruption.

What We Do.

Fractional CIO leadership for estates, without a full-time hire.

We sit alongside your estate manager, household staff, family office, and advisers to ensure every system and supplier is governed properly, aligned to your priorities, and prepared for the unexpected.

We do not replace trusted suppliers. We make them accountable and coordinated.

START HERE: THE FIDARE DIGITAL ESTATE RISK REVIEW.

A fixed-scope review that creates clarity fast.

Most clients begin with a Risk Review. In 10 business days, you receive:

Estate Technology and Access Map (what exists, who controls it)
Ranked Risk Register (privacy, cyber, resilience, vendor exposure)
90-Day Action Plan with sequencing and cost bands
Incident Playbook (first-hour actions and escalation paths)

This is not an implementation project. It is the foundation for responsible decisions.

CORE CAPABILITIES.

We provide ongoing stewardship once control is established, or hands-on leadership during transitions.

Strategic Stewardship and Governance

Ensuring your estate’s digital environment is secure, resilient, and future-ready, with clear ownership and decision rights.

Estate-wide Integration

Harmonising systems across homes, staff, travel, communications, and suppliers so technology works as one environment, not a collection of installs.

Continuity and Legacy Planning

Reducing reliance on individuals and vendors through documented access, structured handovers, and long-term resilience.

Training and Education

Practical training for staff and trusted parties covering safe operation, privacy and data protection, and incident readiness.

How We Work.

Discreet integration. Principal-ready reporting.

We work quietly in the background, coordinating the people and suppliers around you. You receive clear, plain-English reporting that highlights what matters and what to do next.

We collaborate with whomever you choose: estate managers, family office teams, security partners, and professional advisers. Where appropriate, we coordinate specialist firms, but remain independent and vendor-neutral.

You should not have to think about technology to live your life, run your household, or protect your family. Our job is to remove ambiguity and prevent surprises.

Why Fidare?

Trust is not a tagline. It’s an operating standard.

Fidare comes from the Latin “to trust”. Trust is earned through independence, confidentiality, and accountable delivery. We earn it through:

Independence from suppliers
Confidentiality and discretion by default
Clear scope, clear outputs, and accountable delivery
A stewardship mindset.

Robert Smith - Founder & CEO

“In most modern estates, technology touches practically everything, but it’s rarely treated with the same rigour as say, property, finance, or physical security. Fidare exists to bring that level of rigour to our clients technology. We don’t sell systems or chase trends. On our clients behalf, we establish control, reduce risk, and ensure technology remains a strength, not a vulnerability.”
