Cyber Essentials is more than a compliance exercise. It provides a proven framework for protecting your organisation against common cyber threats — and achieving certification can also demonstrate your commitment to security to customers, partners and suppliers.
ANSecurity can help you prepare, remediate and achieve Cyber Essentials or Cyber Essentials Plus with confidence.
Our experienced consultants combine Cyber Essentials expertise with high-level technical accreditations across leading technology vendors, including Cisco, Microsoft and Palo Alto Networks. This means our recommendations are practical, technically informed and suitable for a wide range of IT environments.
We work directly with your team to assess your current environment, identify gaps and provide a clear route towards compliance.
During a typical engagement, our consultants spend one to two days on-site, working through the assessment requirements with your team. We ensure your responses accurately reflect your environment while assessing whether your security policies, processes and technical controls are properly implemented.
Where gaps are identified, we’ll provide practical, prioritised remediation recommendations — including where existing technologies can be used to address requirements, helping you avoid unnecessary investment.
Cyber Essentials focuses on five fundamental areas of security:
Getting these fundamentals right can significantly reduce your exposure to common cyber threats.
For organisations looking for greater assurance, Cyber Essentials Plus provides an additional level of independent technical verification.
The assessment includes:
Our readiness assessment helps you identify and address potential issues before the formal Cyber Essentials Plus assessment, reducing the risk of unexpected findings.
Following our assessment, you’ll receive a comprehensive report outlining any areas requiring attention.
Each recommendation is mapped to the relevant Cyber Essentials requirement and prioritised according to risk and complexity, giving you a clear roadmap for remediation.
Where possible, we’ll identify opportunities to use technology you already have — helping you achieve compliance without unnecessary cost or complexity.
For organisations that simply need support completing the assessment questions, our consultants can typically complete this in one day on-site.
For organisations seeking greater assurance, our one- to two-day readiness assessment provides a deeper review of your environment, followed by a comprehensive report and consultation to discuss the findings and next steps.
With extensive experience across cybersecurity, networking and infrastructure, our consultants understand how to translate Cyber Essentials requirements into real-world security controls.
We don’t just help you complete the assessment. We help you understand where your security stands, where improvements are needed and how to make them.
Get Cyber Essentials ready with confidence.
