What is Cyber Essentials?

Cyber Essentials represents the UK Government's minimum baseline standard for cyber security for organisations of all sizes in the UK. The annually renewable certification scheme is built around five technical controls designed to prevent the most common internet-based cyber security threats.

Cyber Essentials and Cyber Essentials Plus are fast becoming an expectation of businesses looking to reassure clients of their security posture, or bid for Government contracts. It's fast becoming a minimum requirement in the UK.

How does it work?

The scheme is owned by the UK Government and managed by a group called IASME. Turtledove Cyber (that's us) have been assessed and certified as a Certification Body, so we provide start-to-finish support and assessment for both Cyber Essentials and Cyber Essentials Plus.

The pricing for Cyber Essentials Level 1 is set in stone by IASME to make sure it's accessible. That means the decision of who should support you on your journey should always come down to who you'd like to work with, and how easy they can make it for you. The pricing for Cyber Essentials Plus is entirely unregulated, so make sure to get comparative quotes to secure the best value for money.

The best resource to learn about the respective schemes is the official IASME page.

You will need vulnerability management in place. Effective and sustained compliance with the Cyber Essentials standard requires it. This isn't just about updates for operating systems like Windows and macOS. You need to make sure your devices are being scanned for configuration vulnerabilities and outdated applications that aren't caught by updating the operating system alone. If you're looking for Cyber Essentials but need a vulnerability management solution, we have one of the best around.
