In the interconnected digital landscape of today, cybersecurity has become paramount for businesses of all sizes. With the ever-evolving threat landscape and increasingly sophisticated cyber-attacks, organisations must adopt robust security measures to protect their sensitive data and maintain the trust of their customers. Here at SRD Technology UK, we recognise the importance of cybersecurity and have achieved the prestigious Cyber Essentials Plus certification, allowing us to continue our commitment to safeguarding digital assets and customer information.
Cyber Essentials Plus is a government-backed scheme, designed to help organisations implement essential cybersecurity measures and guard against common cyber threats. Achieving Cyber Essentials Plus certification requires a rigorous assessment of an organisation's cybersecurity systems and practices by an independent certification body. It demonstrated that the certified organisation has implemented robust cybersecurity controls and has the capability to defend against a wide range of cyber threats.
The key elements of Cyber Essentials Plus audit include:
An assessor will pick a sample of computers at your organisation and perform an audit to ensure that the devices are configured as per the scheme
A vulnerability scan will be performed on these machines to confirm patching and basic configuration are at an acceptable level
An external port scan of your internet-facing IP address will be conducted to ensure no clear misconfiguration or vulnerabilities can be identified
A test will be conducted on your default email/internet browser to confirm how well configured they are to prevent the execution of fake malicious files
Screenshots will be taken as evidence that the system is Cyber Essentials compliant
