What is Cyber Essentials Certification?

The National Cyber Security Centre Website (NCSC) gives us a clear definition of Cyber Essentials Certification:

 

  • Cyber Essentials is a simple but effective, Government backed scheme that will help you to protect your organisation, whatever its size, against a whole range of the most common cyber attacks.
  • Cyber attacks come in many shapes and sizes, but the vast majority are very basic in nature, carried out by relatively unskilled individuals. They’re the digital equivalent of a thief trying your front door to see if it’s unlocked. Our advice is designed to prevent these attacks.
  • Certification gives you peace of mind that your defences will protect against the vast majority of common cyber attacks simply because these attacks are looking for targets which do not have the Cyber Essentials technical controls in place.
  • Your Cloud Works has now guided many clients to their Cyber Essentials Certification, which in turn has secured their business and opened further doors for new business opportunities.
  • In fact you can check here on the NCSC website to see just which of your partners is already certified. 

Client Cyber Security has been our business focus for a number of years now.

We have a slightly different viewpoint on Cyber Essentials Certification from other certification consultants.
We don’t focus on what your business is missing to reach certification levels. We work with a more secure, long term policy to establish a Cyber Security Culture within your business.
This allows you not only to reach or pass certification levels, but also to maintain a safe IT and Communications infrastructure continually.

Sound like a good idea? Let’s see why…

Why is it important for your business?

The widely recognised cyber safe badges on your website and email signature, give immediate peace of mind to others.

They tell your partners that their valuable business data will be completely safe with your business.

Is it necessary for your business?

That is a great question to consider, in fact every business large or small should take time to consider where their Cyber Security level “really” stands. Only then can you consider how Cyber Essentials Certification could add value to your business.

What are you protecting with business cyber security? Not only your data and your team’s data, but also the valuable data of all of your clients, suppliers and partners. Once your security has been breached all of that information can be accessed, and your reputation and that of your business will be damaged.

4 Reasons Why...
