Security Certifications
Cyber Essentials
Small Framework

Answer yes if your organisation is certified to the first level Cyber Essentials scheme. Please provide your Cyber Essentials certificate as evidence.

Cyber Essentials is a UK Government-backed, industry-supported scheme to help organisations protect themselves against common online threats. It is a certification that shows your organisation has implemented the basic technical security controls required to mitigate some cyber risk. This first level requires a self-assessment.

Since Cyber Essentials is backed by the UK Government, it is more common among UK organisations, but any organisation can get a Cyber Essentials certificate, regardless of where they are in the world.

More information can be found here.

How to implement the control

A good place to start is the Cyber Essentials readiness toolkit provided by the IASME consortium.
