What is Cyber Essentials Plus?

Cyber Essentials Plus is an expansion of the basic Cyber Essentials accreditation. It takes you through the same self-assessment evaluation exercise that determines whether a business has the required levels of understanding to help guard them against a cyber-attack, but requires additional external verification.

AAG helps organisations to achieve Cyber Essentials Plus Accreditation

At AAG we guide our clients through this process and help them understand how CE+ certification can benefit their business.

If you choose to work with us, we’ll take you through the process, helping you to achieve certification and maintain Cyber Essentials Plus accreditation year-on-year.

Our cyber security experts have years of experience helping our clients become Cyber Essentials accredited. At AAG, we hold both Cyber Essentials and Cyber Essentials Plus certification – we know the challenges involved in meeting the criteria.

Our accreditations

By meeting the Cyber Essentials Plus standard as administered by the National Cyber Security Centre you can provide evidence to your customers, shareholders and business partners that you have taken cyber security seriously.

Key Services

Cyber Essentials

Cyber Essentials was first introduced by the National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC). It offers a catalogue of good cyber security practices drawn from best practice guidance from government, industry and academia. It gives a business the ability to assess its cyber security level and display a Cyber Essentials certificate to build customer trust.

Cyber Essentials Plus

Cyber Essentials Plus is an expansion of the original Cyber Essentials accreditation. As well as the self-assessment option, it requires additional, more extensive and regular external verification. We can help your business to become independently verified.
