Which Certification is For You?

Cyber Essentials

The Cyber Essentials process begins with a self-assessment questionnaire (SAQ), which you complete through a secure online portal. The SAQ comprises of around 80 questions focused on the five key controls of Cyber Essentials.

These controls—firewalls, secure configuration, user access control, malware protection, and patch management—are foundational elements in securing your IT environment.

Cyber Essentials Plus

The Cyber Essentials Plus certification takes the Cyber Essentials scheme to the next level.

This advanced certification includes a hands-on, independent assessment of your systems by a qualified professional. It verifies the same five key security controls as Cyber Essentials—firewalls, secure configuration, user access control, malware protection, and patch management.
