This service is for organisations that do not need one-to-one consultancy support and are comfortable carrying out all the preparations for certification themselves.

  • You are confident in defining the scope of your assessment encompassing the entire organisation;

Although we have ISO 27001 we have found that Cyber Essentials still adds value to our cyber security controls. This is our second year achieving Cyber Essentials certification and we have seen the growth of Cyber Essentials as a prerequisite for doing business with our customers. The Cyber Comply Portal from IT Governance makes the Cyber Essentials certification process straight forward and hassle free” Chris, Head of Screening and IT, Agenda Screening Services

Achieving Cyber Essentials was seen as a way to demonstrate a level of assurance to our customers, by showing that security controls are in place to protect the business, its IT systems and information, and that these controls have been assessed against an independent, formal framework. The online portal provided an easy way to enter questionnaire responses, schedule the external checks and also request assistance along the way.
