Cyber Essentials

• Enhance your organisations security posture and prevent around 80% of common cyber attacks such as phishing attacks, malware, ransomware, password guessing, network attacks and more.
• Reassure your customers that you take information security seriously and demonstrate a commitment to data protection and defending against cyber threats.
• Boost your reputation and attract new business by assuring customers you can look after their data.
• Work on Government-level, public, private and third sector contracts that require Cyber Essentials as a minimum requirement.
• A simple, flexible and cost effective solution that reviews basic, effective, technical controls covering businesses of all shapes and sizes.

Cyber Essentials Plus is the next step up from your Cyber Essentials certification. This involves a physical verification of your controls declared on your self-assessment.

An assessor will conduct a vulnerability assessment on your internal networks, systems and external infrastructure to ensure that the controls outlined in your Cyber Essentials self-assessment are implemented correctly. 

Cyber Essentials Plus is held in higher regard and provides peace of mind for your organisation and customers that your cyber security processes have been correctly implemented.

It is possible to move from application to certification within a day or two, not including weekends or bank holidays. This can vary depending on your current infrastructure and speed of action.
