Cyber Essentials

In partnership with The Yardstick Agency

What is Cyber Essentials?

Cyber Essentials is a UK government-backed scheme run by the National Cyber Security Centre. It certifies organisations that have achieved a threshold level of IT security, giving peace of mind to the clients that the firm they are dealing with takes online security and data protection seriously. Something that’s incredibly important in the financial services industry.

The Cyber Essentials Certified logo can be placed on websites where it will be seen by prospective clients and potential partners, reassuring them that this is a business that takes IT security and data protection seriously.

Benefits of Cyber Essentials

The three main benefits of obtaining a Cyber Essentials Certification are as follows.

  1. The organisation will be protected against the most common types of cyber threats, many of which can be extremely costly for a business and can irreparably damage their reputation.

  2. The organisation will be able to openly demonstrate to existing and prospective clients their commitment to protecting their data. They will be able to include their certification status on marketing materials and proposals, improving their messaging during the client acquisition process.

  3. The organisation will be eligible for discounted, and in some cases, free, cyber-insurance provided by AIA UK.
