We are delighted to announce that we have achieved Cyber Essentials certification, which sits neatly next to our ISO27001 certification, a testament to our commitment to cybersecurity. This government-backed scheme helps organisations protect against common cyber threats by implementing fundamental security controls. This achievement underscores our dedication to safeguarding our systems, data, and stakeholders (and their data).
Cyber Essentials certification assures that we have adopted essential cybersecurity measures, reducing our vulnerability to approximately 80% of cyberattacks. It reflects our proactive approach to maintaining a secure operational environment and protecting sensitive information.
Looking ahead, Cyber Essentials sets the stage for us to pursue Cyber Essentials Plus. This advanced certification involves rigorous technical testing to provide further assurance of our robust defenses. We are excited about this next step and look to bring further news on this within the next few months.
