What does Cyber Essentials cover?
Getting your Cyber Essentials training will provide you with a foundational IT health check for your business.
Guidance to mitigate risks
Learn how to take essential precautions to protect your business from cyber-attacks. Gain clear guidance regarding the basic controls all organisations should implement to mitigate the risks of common internet-based threats.
Boundary firewalls & internet gateways
To pass the certification, you will need to protect your internet connection with a firewall that analyses incoming traffic. This level of protection is essential across every device so that all your bases are covered.
Patch management
Cybercriminals seek to exploit vulnerabilities in software and systems. These blind spots for businesses occur when applications, devices or operating systems are not regularly updated. Cyber Essentials ensures that you are entirely up to date with all licensing and software requirements.
Malware protection
Cyber Essentials ensures that you are aware of the numerous ways malware compromises sensitive data. Whether it’s through email, webpages or a USB stick – it’s vital to restrict malware access in every way possible.
Secure configuration
Cyber Essentials requires organisations to configure computers and network devices securely, preventing vulnerabilities, cyber risks and data breaches.
Access control
It is crucial that no unauthorised entities can reach your sensitive data. Cyber Essentials ensures you meet access control requirements, authenticating a user before granting them access to data.
