Cyber Essentials Plus preparation
A practical baseline
Five controls that need to work across the whole scope
Cyber Essentials focuses on firewalls, secure configuration, security update management, user access control and malware protection. The challenge is applying those controls consistently across laptops, desktops, servers, mobiles, cloud services, home workers and every internet-connected boundary in scope.
We establish a reliable asset and software picture first, then test the answers against the real environment before the questionnaire is submitted.
- Supported operating systems, applications and firmware
- Security updates applied within the required timescales
- Separate everyday and administrative access
- Multi-factor authentication and secure cloud configuration
- Effective malware protection and boundary controls
Prepare for Plus
Build technical testing readiness into the first project
Cyber Essentials Plus tests the same control themes through independent technical verification. Preparing for Plus from the beginning makes device sampling, account access, vulnerability checks, malware defence and cloud evidence far easier to manage.
We can remediate the environment, coordinate with your chosen certification body and help staff understand the testing process without compromising the assessor's independence.
Commercial value
Use certification as a working security baseline
Cyber Essentials is increasingly requested in supply chains and tenders, and it can provide a strong foundation for broader assurance work such as ISO 27001 or Defence Cyber Certification.
The best result is not simply a certificate date. It is a repeatable process for assets, supported software, access, updates and secure configuration that the business can maintain throughout the year.
Simple process
From problem to practical plan
Close the gaps
Technical and process issues are prioritised and remediated before submission or testing.
Prepare the evidence
We help make the answers accurate, defensible and consistent with the environment.
Independent decisions stay independent

Before you get in touch
Still unsure? A quick message is enough—we will point you in the right direction.
Are you the certification body?
No. We provide preparation, technical remediation and evidence support. Certification is assessed and issued through an IASME-licensed certification body.
What is the difference between Cyber Essentials and Plus?
Cyber Essentials is a verified self-assessment. Cyber Essentials Plus adds independent technical testing of the controls.
Can you help if we have already started the questionnaire?
Yes. We can review the current answers against the real environment and help resolve gaps before submission.
Should we prepare for Plus at the same time?
If Cyber Essentials Plus is likely to follow, yes. Building testing readiness into the initial remediation avoids repeating work and reduces last-minute problems with device samples, patching, accounts and cloud configuration.
