Guided Cyber Essentials

I take you through every question in the Cyber Essentials assessment, one by one, until you are ready to submit. You understand every answer you give.

Who it is for

Businesses that need Cyber Essentials, often because a customer, a tender or an insurer has asked for it, and want an expert alongside them rather than guessing at the questions.

How it works

  1. We agree your scopeWhich parts of the business, which devices and which cloud services are in. Getting this right first saves time later.
  2. We work through the questionsOnline sessions where we go through each question in the current question set against how your business really works.
  3. You fix the gapsWhere an answer isn't right yet, I tell you exactly what to change. You or your IT provider make the change.
  4. You submitWhen every answer is true, you submit to the certification body. I stay on hand if the assessor comes back with questions.
