Cyber Essentials

Cyber Essentials is an effective, government backed scheme that helps organisations protect their organisation against a range of the most common cyber-attacks and stay ahead of new cybers security risks.

Whether you are looking to achieve Cyber Essentials for the first time or renew and existing certification, Cortida offer a range of support and certification services for organisations of all sizes.

Are there different types of Cyber Essentials?

Cyber Essentials comes in two flavours, Cyber Essentials and Cyber Essentials Plus:

Cyber Essentials - Is a self-attested option that provides protection against a wide variety of the most common cyber attacks. This is important because vulnerability to basic attacks can mark an organisation out as target for more in-depth unwanted attention from cyber criminals and others.

Cyber Essentials Plus - is similar to Cyber Essential albeit that it includes a hands-on technical verification of the organisation’s cyber essentials return.

How will Cyber Essentials help me?
