Why is Cyber Essentials important for recruitment firms?
Growing risk
As a recruiter, your business processes large quantities of personal data, making you a tempting target for cybercriminals. Cyber Essentials can help protect your business from most cyber threats.
Switch to remote working safely
82% of UK recruitment firms have adopted some form of remote working, but working from home brings its security challenges. Cyber Essentials can provide your business with the guidance to make the switch safely.
Customer assurance
Recruitment is a business based on trust – your clients and candidates need to know their personal data is safe. Cyber Essentials certification provides government-backed proof your business is safe to work with – crucial to retaining current customers and winning new ones.

Cyber Essentials certification only guarantees your business is working safely on the day of assessment. So how do you stay safe the rest of the time?
