Cyber Essentials – What And Why?
Cyber Essentials is an effective, Government backed scheme that will help you to protect your organisation, whatever its size, against a whole range of the most common cyber attacks.
As a business with many sensitive assets within your network, it’s at constant risk to cyber threats that look to gain access to important company information and private customer data. In fact, there are nearly 65,000 attempted cyber attacks on UK businesses each day, with one successfully breaching a network every 19 seconds.
Contrary to what you may think of cyber security and network issues, avoiding this immense risk doesn’t have to be complicated! Cyber Essentials offers you a jargon-free way to audit your cyber security and get certified to show that you’re taking the necessary precautions to minimise cyber risk.

When you choose to get Cyber Essentials certified through Equity, you get access to more than just a certificate. Our Cyber Essentials scheme provides you with everything you need to get certified quickly, first time.
