About the webinar

Cyber Essentials has changed. Make sure you’re prepared.

The new Cyber Essentials requirements are already in force, and organisations applying or renewing need to understand what the changes mean before starting their assessment.

Areas such as cloud services, MFA, patching, scope and evidence now need closer attention. Getting these wrong can delay certification, make the assessment more difficult and potentially put customer or supplier requirements at risk.

In this on-demand webinar, Ashley Brett, Cyber Security Advisor at GRC Solutions; Adam Seamons, Head of Information Security; and Sophie Sayer, Channel Sales Director explain what has changed, what assessors are looking for and the practical steps you can take to prepare for Cyber Essentials or Cyber Essentials Plus.

Get practical guidance, understand the common pitfalls and learn how to improve your readiness and chances of passing first time.
