UK Cyber Essentials Certification

Cyber Essentials is a UK Government-backed and industry-supported certification scheme. It helps organizations protect themselves and their customers from the most common cyber threats by providing a set of controls they must implement to be certified. These security controls are designed to provide a comprehensive set of measures for protecting an organization’s data from unauthorized access or corruption by malicious actors.

What are the Requirements for UK Cyber Essentials Compliance?

The UK Cyber Essentials scheme enables organisations to gain one of two badges — Cyber Essentials or Cyber Essentials Plus. It is backed by industry including the Federation of Small Businesses, the CBI and a number of insurance organisations which are offering incentives for businesses. Organizations must demonstrate they have taken steps to secure their IT systems against the most common cyber threats. To achieve a UK Cyber Essentials certification, organizations must:

Understand Cyber Risks

Implement Controls

Pass an Independent Assessment

Once UK Cyber Essentials certification has been achieved, organizations must ensure they maintain their cyber security posture by auditing and testing their systems on a regular basis. This helps ensure that any issues are identified quickly and can be remediated in a timely manner.
