I’m Cyber Essentials accredited, do I still need a Cyber Security Review?

  1. You want to ensure your business operates an IT infrastructure that goes beyond basic security measures
  2. You collect, store, and use customer/employee data on a computerised or online system and need to ensure it is highly secure
  3. You want to demonstrate compliance, whether that’s GDPR, the UK Data Protection Act or the NHS DSP Toolkit
  4. You want to reassure partners and stakeholders that your IT defenses are robust and your business is protected against emerging cyber threats

If you answer yes to any of the above statements, then you should strongly consider our Security Review.

While Cyber Essentials establishes a baseline for security, it is essential to strive beyond this foundation to fully protect your business. Our Cyber Security Review is designed to surpass these basic requirements, ensuring that your security practices are not just adequate but robust and adaptive to new threats.

Effective measures for protection

5 simple ways to enhance your cyber security

Apply now
01

Set up a firewall

A firewall is a network security device that monitors incoming and outgoing network traffic and decides whether to allow or block specific traffic based on a defined set of security rules. If your firewall scans malicious code as a security risk, it will be prevented from entering the network or reaching your device.

02

Review your device security settings

To keep your information secure from potential security risks, it’s important to take a close look at the security and privacy settings on all of your devices, accounts and apps.

03

Control access to data, services and accounts

Controlling access is a way of guaranteeing that users are who they say they are and that they have the appropriate access to company data. Access control is a selective restriction of access to data, and without authentication and authorisation, there is no cyber security.

04

Train your staff to identify malware and viruses

You can lower your risk of cyber attacks by being vigilant of suspicious pop-ups or links that could leave your device compromised to malware and other viruses. Internal cyber security training could help with this.

05

Keep your devices and software up to date

Updates for devices and softwares often contain new features, fixes for bugs and performance improvements. They may also contain security patches and new security features, both of which are important to install. Patches will fix known flaws in products that would leave your devices vulnerable to attackers.
