Safeguard your organization, along with its valuable data and applications, against hacking and malicious attacks through Cyber Essentials, a scheme supported by the government that provides defense against various prevalent cyber threats.
The UK Government has launched Cyber Essentials, a scheme aimed at assisting businesses in safeguarding themselves from cyber-attacks and hackers. The program provides companies with a framework of five vital yet standard security controls: Firewalls, Secure Configuration, User Access Control, Malware Protection, and Patch Management.
Regardless of your company's in-house expertise, the Cyber Essentials scheme is an excellent tool to help reduce the constant threat of security breaches. By implementing these Cyber Essentials controls, your organization can significantly enhance its cybersecurity posture and ensure that critical data and applications are protected.
At Warrior Networks, we are dedicated to helping you navigate the Cyber Essentials certification process. Our team of experts will work closely with you to implement the necessary controls and ensure compliance with the scheme's requirements. This proactive approach not only safeguards your data but also demonstrates your commitment to cybersecurity to your clients and partners.
The Cyber Essentials scheme offers a cost-effective way to improve your organization's security defenses. By adhering to the five key controls, you can prevent the majority of cyber-attacks and reduce the risk of data breaches. Warrior Networks provides comprehensive support throughout the certification process, from initial assessment to implementation and ongoing management.
One of the key benefits of Cyber Essentials is its simplicity and effectiveness. The five controls are designed to be straightforward yet powerful in defending against common cyber threats. Warrior Networks ensures that these controls are seamlessly integrated into your existing IT infrastructure, minimizing disruption and maximizing protection.
Firewalls are the first line of defense in the Cyber Essentials framework. Warrior Networks helps you configure and manage robust firewalls to block unauthorized access and protect your network perimeter. Secure configuration ensures that systems are set up securely, reducing vulnerabilities that could be exploited by attackers.
User access control is crucial for limiting access to sensitive data and systems. Warrior Networks assists you in implementing strong authentication measures and managing user permissions effectively. Malware protection is another critical control, and our experts deploy advanced anti-malware solutions to detect and prevent malicious software from compromising your systems.
Patch management is essential for keeping your software up-to-date and secure. Warrior Networks ensures that all your systems receive timely updates and patches to protect against known vulnerabilities. By maintaining a regular patching schedule, we help you stay ahead of potential threats and maintain compliance with Cyber Essentials.
In conclusion, Cyber Essentials is an invaluable scheme for protecting your organization from cyber threats. Warrior Networks is committed to guiding you through the certification process and helping you implement the five key controls. With our expertise and support, you can safeguard your data, enhance your cybersecurity posture, and build trust with your stakeholders. Choose Warrior Networks to achieve Cyber Essentials certification and ensure the security of your business.
The Cyber Essentials requirements must now be met by all devices and software within the scope boundary that satisfy any of the following criteria: the ability to receive incoming network connections from untrusted hosts on the internet, the capability to initiate incoming network connections from untrusted internet-connected hosts, and the authority to govern the transmission of data between any of these devices and the internet.
The Cyber Essentials scheme reviews your systems and zones in on five key control areas:
Ensuring you have basic levels of network security and are safely connected to the outside world.
Malware attacks are one of the most significant risks facing businesses today. As such, Cyber Essentials reviews all your devices to ensure they are sufficiently protecting your data and privacy.
Ensuring that you’re implementing the correct security measures across all devices, both infrastructure, and end-user, covering home-working and in-office devices.
There are two Cyber Essentials Certification available for businesses:
The Cyber Essentials framework offers organisations, regardless of their size or industry, an introductory level of security assessment and suggestions for improvement. By utilizing this framework, businesses can receive a report that heightens their awareness of security risks and promotes the adoption of more secure behaviours.
In order to gain a comprehensive comprehension of potential security flaws, Cyber Essentials Plus extends the foundational framework by thoroughly examining all relevant settings, including but not limited to user devices, internal gateways, and servers. However, prior completion of the Cyber Essentials evaluation is mandatory.
Warrior Networks is committed to helping its customers successfully complete their Cyber Essentials assessment. To that end, we will be conducting a comprehensive readiness assessment of their IT infrastructure.
Before the formal Cyber Essentials audit, an assessment will be conducted to identify and address any vulnerabilities or issues. This comprehensive assessment will include a thorough inventory of all end-user devices such as servers, firewalls, workstations, laptops, company-issued mobile phones, and tablets. It will take into account the quantity, Operating System, and build versions of each device to ensure that all Operating Systems are supported and receiving firmware updates.

When it comes to conducting Cyber Security Risk Assessments (CRSA’s) we like to ask difficult questions, and by no means are our CRSA’s light touch. We do not simply conduct port scans and provide you with the report.
Our goal is not to only tell you what the security gaps are in your business but also the uncomfortable loss either monetary or reputational based that will occur as a result of either these risks not being known or simply ignored over time.
An exploratory call will outline the technical operational tasks that are carried out and expectations from each side discussed.
Providing a high degree of confidence that all risks are managed
We can provide management advice about risk with this being based upon ICO, Cabinet Office, National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC), and international best practice guidance (ISO/IEC 27005), covering a range of both component and system -based analysis methods.
