Cyber Security Essentials Support – cybersecurity certification through Couno

Show staff, clients, and suppliers how seriously you take their sensitive data by signing up to the Cyber Essentials scheme

Cyber Security Essentials Support

Cyber Essentials is a charter mark, backed by the government and supported by the IT industry, that helps protect your business from threats and cyberattacks.

It’s a clear demonstration to anyone who works with your company that you take data security seriously.

Our cyber security consultant experts will support you through the entire Cyber Essentials process, enabling you to proudly display the Cyber Essentials logo on your website and stationery.

Cyber Essentials requirements

Cyber Essentials is based around the government’s ten steps to cybersecurity:

  1. Network security (protection from cyberattack and defending your network perimeter)
  2. User education and awareness
  3. Malware prevention (phishing, viruses, ransomware)
  4. Removable media controls
  5. Secure configuration (security patches, knowing every part of your IT system, and so on)
  6. Managing user privileges (including monitoring user activity, audit logs and more)
  7. Incident management (disaster recovery and business continuity)
  8. Monitoring (of systems, networks, and users)
  9. Home and mobile working (including protect data where the devise has been lost or stolen)
  10. Establishing your risk management regime

Why Cyber Essentials certification matters

Cyber Essentials

By gaining Cyber Essentials certification you’re sending a message to your staff and customers that you take data security seriously.

That’s great for your customers, especially since the advent of new data protection laws, and great for the way your entire organisation works together. Once a culture of cybersecurity forms – backed up by Couno’s technology and expert-led services – the risk of a breach greatly diminishes.

That means less downtime, greater productivity, and a much lower chance of reputational damage.

It’s a great selling point for your company too. No matter who your client is, from a private homeowner to a FTSE 100 company, they want to know they can trust you to look after their personal information.

Cyber Essentials certification can lead to better business partnerships.  More and more public-sector organisations, departments, and large companies are beginning to require suppliers who work with their data to be Cyber Essentials certified. Getting on board now could give you a clear advantage over others bidding for projects.
