Learn how Heimdal can facilitate your UK-based organization in achieving Cyber Essentials compliance quickly and efficiently.
Cyber Essentials is a practical, government-backed scheme that will assist you in protecting your organization, no matter how large or small, against a wide range of common cyber attacks.
Cyber attacks come in various shapes and sizes, but the vast majority are straightforward and carried out by relatively unskilled individuals. They're the digital equivalent of a thief checking to see if your front door is unlocked. Cyber Essentials’ advice is to keep these attacks from happening.
The Cyber Essentials certificate is a self-assessment option that safeguards you against various cyber attacks. This is significant because security flaws can make you a target for unwanted attention from cyber criminals.
Because these attacks are looking for targets that do not have the Cyber Essentials technical controls in place, the Cyber Essentials certification gives you peace of mind that your defenses will protect you against the vast majority of common cyber attacks.
The Cyber Essentials Plus certification retains the Cyber Essentials trademark simplicity of approach, and the protections you must implement remain the same. The Cyber Essentials Plus certificate includes hands-on technical verification.
Alternatively, with this certification, you can become acquainted with cyber security terminology, gaining sufficient knowledge to begin securing your IT systems.
Cyber Essentials is a globally recognized IT security standard developed by the United Kingdom's National Cyber Security Centre that is used to ensure the security of IT software and processes and the protection of organizations from data breaches and leaks.
It assists the UK's most critical organizations, the wider public sector, industry, SMEs, and the general public. When incidents occur, they provide an effective incident response to minimize harm to the UK, aid recovery and teach future lessons.
Territories: the UK.
Cyber Essentials’ main goal is to guard your organization against cyber attack. The scheme is a government initiative designed to help organizations of all sizes defend themselves against the most common cyber threats.
To accomplish this goal, Cyber Essentials covers the following cybersecurity areas:
Firewalls
Malware Protection
Patch Management
Secure Configuration
User Access Control
With Heimdal products, you are getting coverage across all relevant areas.
Many non-governmental organizations rely on Cyber Essentials to win or accept contracts from the UK government. As a result, Cyber Essentials is one of the requirements for being fully compliant and providing services to the UK government. Organizations can achieve cybersecurity protection, comply with regulations, and demonstrate trustworthiness to stakeholders by focusing on these five key areas.
