Why is Cyber Essentials Important?

Cyber Essentials is more than just a certificate — it’s proof that your business takes IT security seriously. By achieving it, you’re showing clients, suppliers, and partners that your systems meet recognised best practices for protecting against cyber threats. This reassurance builds trust and positions you as a competent, reliable organisation. For businesses tendering for work, Cyber Essentials can be a deciding factor; many contracts now require it as a minimum standard. Having it in place could help you win a contract, while not having it could mean missing out — especially as the certification process can take time to complete.

Cyber Essentials Plus takes this one step further. While the standard Cyber Essentials certification involves a self-assessment, Cyber Essentials Plus includes an independent, hands-on technical audit by a qualified assessor. This means your systems are actively tested to confirm that the protections you’ve put in place are working effectively in the real world. It’s the gold standard for proving that your organisation isn’t just compliant on paper, but genuinely resilient against cyber attacks.
