Cyber Essentials Service
At Aztech, the Cyber Essentials certification is about resilience, not just compliance.
Cyber Essentials is a pivotal cybersecurity initiative designed to bolster the digital resilience of organisations, particularly small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), against a backdrop of escalating cyber threats.
Established by the UK government, this scheme outlines a set of fundamental security measures that serve as a robust foundation for safeguarding sensitive data and systems from malicious actors. At its core, Cyber Essentials emphasises five key areas of cybersecurity: boundary firewalls and internet gateways, secure configuration, access control, malware protection, and patch management.
By adhering to these essential principles, organisations can significantly reduce their vulnerability to common cyber-attacks such as phishing, ransomware, and unauthorised access. One of the distinguishing features of Cyber Essentials is its accessibility and applicability across various industries and sectors.
Whether it's a small local business or a multinational corporation, the principles outlined in Cyber Essentials can be implemented to fortify cybersecurity posture effectively.
