  • Cyber Essentials Plus
An extended certification to protect your business

CYBER ESSENTIALS PLUS
ASSURANCE SCHEME

Cyber Essentials PLUS is the highest level of certification offered under the Cyber Essentials scheme.

Like the standard self-certification Cyber Essentials scheme, this extended certification also covers the 5 core areas of cyber security to protect businesses from the most common cyber attacks.

However the CE+ certification involves a more rigorous hands-on verification of an organisation’s cyber security systems. A series of tests and vulnerability scans are undertaken by our trained cyber security assessors to confirm that all controls declared in the Cyber Essentials self-assessment are implemented on your organisations network.
