Cyber Essentials

Cyber Essentials Assessments – Your Pathway to Cyber Resilience

Baseline Protection Against Cyber Threats

Cyber Essentials is a government-backed scheme designed to help organisations protect themselves from a range of common cyber-attacks. It focuses on five important technical security controls which are secure configuration, firewalls, security management, user access control and malware protection and provides a clear statement of the basic controls all organisations should implement to reduce the risk from cyber threats. Certification through Cyber Essentials provides a clear statement of the basic controls your organisation has in place to defend against cyber threats. Our Cyber Essentials assessment services include:

• Pre-Assessment: Review your current cybersecurity measures and identify areas for improvement.
• Technical Assessment: Examine your IT infrastructure to ensure it meets Cyber Essentials standards.
• Remediation Support: Provide guidance and support to address any identified vulnerabilities.
• Certification Assistance: Help you navigate the certification process, ensuring you meet all requirements.

Achieving Cyber Essentials certification not only enhances your security posture but also demonstrates to your clients and partners that you take cybersecurity seriously. With the Cyber Essentials certification, a UK or Crown Dependencies domiciled organisation with a turnover under £20m is entitled to Cyber Liability Insurance, provided their scope covers the whole organisation. The insurance includes a total limit of indemnity of £25,000. This covers various aspects such as liability claims, event management, extortion threats, and regulatory investigations, among others.
