Cyber Essentials is the UK Government's reaction to the proliferation of these attacks. It requires that organisations put basic security measures in place, enabling them to reliably counter the most common tactics employed by cyber criminals. From 1 October 2014, all suppliers bidding for a range of government ICT contracts - in particular contracts requiring the handling of sensitive and personal information - must be certified to the scheme.
This Pocket Guide explains how to achieve certification to Cyber Essentials in a fast, effective and cost-efficient manner. It will help you to:
- understand the requirements of the scheme
- implement the controls correctly
- realise when you are ready to seek certification
- get a grip on both the certification process and the distinction between Cyber Essentials and Cyber Essentials Plus
- find additional help and resources.

The file format PDF always displays a book page identically on any hardware. This makes PDF suitable for complex layouts such as those used in textbooks and reference books (images, tables, columns, footnotes). Unfortunately, on the small screens of e-readers or smartphones, PDFs are rather annoying, requiring too much scrolling.
This eBook uses Adobe-DRM, a „hard” copy protection. If the necessary requirements are not met, unfortunately you will not be able to open the eBook. You will therefore need to prepare your reading hardware before downloading.
Please note: We strongly recommend that you authorise using your personal Adobe ID after installation of any reading software.
