We make complex things straightforward

Cyber security frameworks can feel overwhelming. Our approach is to explain what is required, why it matters and what the process looks like in plain language. The feedback from clients who have been through it with us says the same thing: it was easier than they expected.

Why it matters

Cyber threats are
growing

According to the National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC), ransomware remains the most immediate threat facing UK organisations today, highlighted by large-scale ransomware attacks on major organisations that have received media attention. For small and medium-sized businesses media coverage is less high profile, but consequences are equally severe. Intellectual property and confidential data loss, operational disruption, regulatory fines and reputational damage can all follow a single successful attack.

Cyber Essentials certification can be the simplest and most cost-effective first step that all organisations can take to prevent common forms of cyber attack. It demonstrates a minimum baseline of protection to clients, suppliers and regulators, and can even open doors to contracts that would otherwise be off-limits.

For organisations seeking cyber resilience, IASME Cyber Assurance, Defence Cyber Certification, penetration testing, Virtual CISO support and ISO 27001 alignment can provide a more structured and proportionate approach to reducing risk and supporting business growth.

Frequently Asked Questions

If you cannot find the answer you are looking for, ask us and we will walk you through it.

Cyber Essentials is a UK Government-backed scheme that helps organisations protect themselves against the most common cyber threats. It covers five technical controls — firewalls, secure configuration, user access control, malware protection and patch management. Certification is valid for 12 months.

Often. Cyber Essentials is typically required for UK government contracts involving personal data or certain IT services. If you are unsure whether it applies to your situation, get in touch and we can talk it through.

Cyber Essentials involves a self-assessment questionnaire that is verified by an accredited certification body. Cyber Essentials Plus adds an independent technical audit of your live systems, carried out by a qualified assessor.

Timescales vary considerably, depending on factors such as whether security controls are already in place, business priorities and how quickly any required changes can be implemented. Arrange a call and we will discuss the likely timeline for your situation.
