Cyber Essentials Plus
DEMONSTRATING CYBERSECURITY COMMITMENT
Achieving High Standards
Cyber Essentials and Cyber Essentials Plus are fast becoming the standard to demonstrate your commitment to cyber security. Achieving them is mandatory if you want to bid for business in certain sectors.
The industry-supported Cyber Essentials scheme helps prevent the vast majority of cyber attacks and sets out a range of security controls to help protect an organisation against cyber threats to its IT systems and soware.
Two levels to the scheme
LEVEL ONE
Cyber Essentials, requires a completed self-assessment questionnaire, with responses independently reviewed by an external certifying body.
LEVEL TWO
Cyber Essentials Plus covers the same requirements, but with tests of an organisation’s systems being additionally carried out by an external certifying body using a range of tools and techniques.

Our thoughts
IT DOESN’T HAVE TO BE COMPLICATED
While cyber security at its highest level can be complex, the core principles are simple. The UK’s Information Commissioner, Elizabeth Denham, summed it up when she said:
“Don’t just shut the door. Lock it. Then check the locks. And be mindful about who you allow to have a key.”
