IT Infastructure Certification

Protecting your business and customers from digital and technological threats is mandatory for many industries. Furthermore, it speaks to your reputation and ethics in wanting to protect your systems and customers. Schemes such as Cyber Essentials can help firms protect themselves by developing and implementing a set of basic technical controls. Areas in such programs include IT infastructure, firewalls, virus and malware protection.

ISO27001 goes slightly further in providing firms with an extensive framework to comply with and implement. Moreover, certification is available after a positive assessment to demonstrate a high standard of information security.

We have used many of the requirements and frameworks from these schemes to ensure our policies and information security toolkit are compliant and effective. However, our extensive knowledge of policy development and information security controls means we have gone above and beyond in our policy content. For example, our toolkit covers areas such as asset management, business continuity, secure disposal, email usage, access control and more. We have also included a detailed information security checklist for gap analysis.
