Cyber Essentials, handled for you
Cyber Essentials is the UK government-backed scheme that shows customers, insurers and partners you have the basics of cyber security in place. We start with a gap analysis against the five core controls (firewalls, secure configuration, user access, malware protection and security updates), then give you a clear, prioritised list of what needs fixing.
Our engineers do the remediation with you, tightening device settings, sorting out patching and locking down accounts, then guide you through the self-assessment so you submit with confidence. Most SMEs are certified within a few weeks rather than months.
