Cyber Essentials Certification

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.

What's included?

  • Cyber Essentials certification. The price of Cyber Essentials is from £320 + VAT, as set by IASME. Additional charges are for extra services provided. Price is dependent on the size of the organisation being certified.
  • One-to-one support from our “world-class”-rated team.
  • Two attempts to achieve a positive outcome.
  • £25,000 free cyber insurance.*

Is this service right for you?

This service is suitable for your organisation if:

  • You are confident in defining the scope of your assessment encompassing the entire organisation;
  • You own and operate your entire scope of IT infrastructure;
  • You are familiar with the five key controls covered in the Cyber Essentials questionnaire and how to meet them; or
  • You have previously certified and are looking to renew and your scope has not changed.

It can be a minefield knowing where to turn in the world of Cyber Essentials certification. IT Governance has the experience and expertise to ensure any headaches are minimal. Communication is very straightforward and concise. Their pricing is also competitive. You really don't need to look any further.

The Cyber Essentials Certification and Pre-check package is a MUST HAVE for new partners or small businesses, and completely negates the knowledge requirement for those unaware of the process surrounding the certification. However in a rush this service may not suit everyone, as a speedy turnaround is not always easy frustration can occur. In the end this service is well worth the price, especially for those lacking the needed knowledge. -Jacob, Technical Delivery Manager @ Alphascan

Good support from the IT gov team when completing and answering questions. The only thing that could be improved is the UX of the question page. It is slow to respond and could offer more advice on what the questions mean. It would have also been good to be advised of last years certificate extension before purchasing the product.

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.

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.

Cyber Essentials compliance is essential for any British organisation that wants to improve its protection against cyber attacks while also gaining a competitive edge. This is separate from our ISO 27001:2013 accreditation. By achieving this Cyber Essential Plus certification we demonstrate to our customers that ELEXON has robust practices and policies which protect us from cyber-attacks.
