If you’ve browsed our Cybersecurity pages, you’ll know how important it is to achieve Cyber Essentials certification. This is a national scheme backed by the government, which demonstrates you have the right protections in place to protect you from hackers.
But how exactly do you achieve Cyber Essentials? What steps do you have to take, and how long will the process last?
We know that you’ll have plenty of questions about the process itself. That’s why we’ve created this useful guide. It explores the full details of what you need to do to improve your systems, how to know when you’re ready to proceed and how to handle the application.
Hopefully, this guide will answer a lot of your questions, such as “How much does Cyber Essentials certification cost?”, “How do I pass Cyber Essentials for the first time?” “How to become Cyber Essentials certified” or “How long to get Cyber Essentials?”
Of course, if you have any other questions or want to know if it’s right for your business, please get in touch. We’re always happy to answer any questions you may have about the Cyber Essentials requirements for IT infrastructures.

Cyber Essentials security is just one layer of defences
The UK Cyber Essentials scheme is an excellent layer of defence against unknown threats and harms.
But it’s just that – one single layer.
We want businesses in the East of England to be fully protected against all cybersecurity threats. That’s why we combine Cyber Essentials certification with proactive defences, including penetration testing, endpoint detection and response and disaster recovery plans.
Our cybersecurity support is ideally suited for any business across Ipswich, Colchester, Felixstowe, Bury St Edmunds and Norwich (and all the areas in between!). Our role is to set you up with the fundamental protections that you need and to make sure that you have the proper safeguards in place to increase your resilience.
Don’t put off your cybersecurity planning.
