Cyber Essentials

What is Cyber Essentials Plus?

Cyber Essentials Plus is the advanced level of the UK government-backed Cyber Essentials certification scheme. It provides independent verification that your organisation’s cyber security controls are correctly implemented and operating effectively.

Unlike standard Cyber Essentials, which is based on a self-assessment questionnaire, Cyber Essentials Plus includes hands-on technical testing carried out by an independent assessor. This provides a higher level of assurance and credibility.

The assessment typically includes:

  • External vulnerability scanning

  • Internal system testing

  • Device configuration checks

  • Verification of firewall and security settings

  • Testing of user access controls

This makes Cyber Essentials Plus a stronger demonstration of cyber security assurance.
