Cyber Essentials preparation for UK SMEs

Cyber Essentials is the UK Government-backed baseline for cyber security. Many government contracts ask for it. We prepare your submission and help you fix gaps first, so you apply knowing what the assessor will look for.

What Cyber Essentials checks

Five technical controls: firewalls, secure configuration, user access control, malware protection and security update management (NCSC).

What we do

• Review your devices, accounts and settings against the question set.

• List what needs fixing, in plain English, for you or your IT provider.

• Prepare the submission with you.

How the fees work

• Our preparation is an add-on service, quoted before we start.

• The certification fee is paid separately and direct to the certification body. It depends on your organisation's size.

Cyber Essentials alongside ISO

Many buyers ask for ISO 9001 and Cyber Essentials together. See our ISO certification page.

Frequently asked questions

Are you a certification body?
