Coreitech Achieves Cyber Essentials & Cyber Essentials Plus Certification
Coreitech has officially achieved both Cyber Essentials and Cyber Essentials Plus certification, demonstrating its commitment to the highest standards of cyber security for UK SMEs.
Coreitech is proud to announce that it has successfully achieved both Cyber Essentials and Cyber Essentials Plus certification, the UK government-backed scheme that helps organisations protect themselves against the most common cyber attacks.
What is Cyber Essentials?
Cyber Essentials is a government-backed, industry-supported scheme that helps organisations of all sizes protect themselves against the most common online threats. The certification demonstrates that an organisation has implemented the five essential technical controls required to defend against the majority of internet-based attacks.
What is Cyber Essentials Plus?
Cyber Essentials Plus is the more advanced tier of the scheme. It includes all the requirements of the basic Cyber Essentials certification but adds a rigorous hands-on technical audit, where an independent assessor tests the organisation's systems in real-world scenarios to verify that the controls are operating effectively.
What this means for our clients
For Coreitech's clients, this dual certification provides independent assurance that our own internal systems and security practices meet the highest government-recognised standards. As an IT and cyber security partner, we hold ourselves to the same standards we recommend to our clients — and this achievement reinforces our position as a trusted, certified provider of managed IT and cyber security services to UK SMEs.
Helping our clients get certified
Coreitech also supports clients through their own Cyber Essentials and Cyber Essentials Plus certification journey, providing gap assessments, remediation work, and end-to-end guidance to ensure a smooth certification process.
