Why is Cyber Essentials important for science and technology?
Growing risk
The science and technology space is populated by thousands of SMEs. Unfortunately, attacks on SMEs account for 58% of all cybercrime. And, with many employees currently working from home on unsecured networks and devices, the risk is only growing.
Government contracts
Public sector work is often an important source of revenue for the science space. However, to bid for most government or MOD contracts, you’ll need to be Cyber Essentials certified.
Customer assurance
Cyber Essentials certification provides government-backed proof your business is safe to work with – crucial to retaining current customers and winning new ones.
More than certification…
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?
