Why people choose Cyber Essentials with us
You can find cheaper.
You won't find easier.
Most providers lead with the lowest price. The real cost is time, stress and retests. You get dropped into a portal, stuck in the questionnaire and left chasing answers from already busy IT teams.
We do the opposite. You get a named expert who knows the standard inside out and translates it into what it means for your network, devices and people – in plain English. No guessing, no “tick every box and hope”.

What you actually get
Cyber Essentials and Cyber Essentials Plus, made simple.
Two levels of assurance, one joined-up approach. We stay with you from the first question to the final sign-off, so you know exactly which level you need and what it will take to pass.
Cyber Essentials
A self-assessment that proves you have the core technical controls in place across your organisation – the minimum most tenders and insurers now expect.
- Guided questionnaire help so you’re never guessing what a control really means for your setup.
- Pre-Assessment Review of your responses before they’re submitted, to catch issues early and avoid painful fails.
- FREE £25,000 Cyber Insurance from the scheme once you’re certified (subject to eligibility).
- Assured compliance with industry standards. Show clients, frameworks and insurers you take basic cyber risk seriously.
Cyber Essentials Plus
A hands-on technical audit that checks your Cyber Essentials controls are actually working in practice on real devices and systems.
- Preparation sessions so you know exactly what the auditor will look at and how to get ready without chaos.
- Remote 1-to-1 expert support during preparation and follow-up questions, not just a test dropped on you.
- Streamlined certification. Cyber Essentials and Plus handled together in a joined-up way so you’re not repeating work.
- Unlimited free retests on the agreed scope if changes are needed after the technical checks.
