Certification
A nonprofit taken from Cyber Essentials to Cyber Essentials Plus.
We got a nonprofit ready for Cyber Essentials, then for the audited Cyber Essentials Plus, and supported it through to certification at each stage.

What we certify, and what we help with.
Certification bodies are licensed scheme by scheme, and for DCC, level by level. Here's where we assess you ourselves and where we get you ready for an independent assessment.
We certify
Cyber Essentials
IASME accredits us as a Cyber Essentials Certification Body, so we mark your submission and issue the certificate ourselves.

Cyber Essentials Plus

Cyber security audits in Norwich.
An audit shows where your security gaps are and which to fix first. We write it up so your board can weigh each risk by its cost and recovery time.
What we look at
- How your systems and accounts are set up today
- The threats you're most exposed to
- Gaps in your security controls
- The business risk behind each gap
What you get
- A written report in plain English that your board can act on
- Every gap priced, in the order we'd fix them
If Cyber Essentials is the goal, start with our readiness review, which checks your setup against the five controls. To check yourself first, our guide covers how to pass Cyber Essentials, control by control.

What do you certify, and what do you help with?
We certify Cyber Essentials and Cyber Essentials Plus as an IASME-accredited Certification Body, and we assess and certify DCC Level 0 for other organisations. For DCC Levels 1 to 3, we get you ready and a certification body licensed at that level assesses you.
Where should a small organisation start with cyber security?
Cyber Essentials. Its five controls protect against the most common attacks, and customers and insurers often ask for it.
Is Cyber Essentials enough on its own?
No, it’s a baseline. Backups and staff training aren’t among its technical requirements, though the NCSC strongly recommends backups.
What’s in a cyber security audit?
A review of how your systems and accounts are set up and where your controls fall short. You get a written report that prices each gap and puts them in the order we’d fix them.
Can you help with our cyber insurance renewal?
Yes. We help you answer the insurer’s security questions accurately and fix anything that counts against you.
Do you work on site, or remotely?
Both, depending on the work. We’re based at White Lodge Business Park in Norwich, and certification runs through the IASME portal, so location doesn’t matter.
