At Lantech, we strongly believe in the value of Cyber Essentials, not just for its immediate security benefits but for its long-term impact on business resilience.
The Cyber Essentials Scheme is cyber security framework, backed by the UK Government, which enables organisations to protect themselves against 80% of the most common cyber attacks. The scheme was developed by the National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC) and is delivered by the IASME Consortium (IASME), with the aim of providing organisations with an accessible and effective starting point for strengthening their cyber security posture and bolstering their defences against cyber criminals and threats.
We’re proud to announce that we hold our Cyber Essentials certification which underscores our commitment to maintaining the highest standards of cybersecurity. To earn this certification, we implemented robust security controls across five key technical areas: firewalls, access control, security updates, malware protection, and secure configuration. Our efforts were rigorously assessed by URM Consulting Services, an accredited certification body.
We Believe in Cyber Essentials
As a Managed IT Services provider, we’re often called upon to deliver quick fixes when things go wrong. While we excel in this, our true goal is to support the long-term, sustainable growth of our clients. That’s why we advocate for proactive measures like Cyber Essentials. This certification serves as more than just a protective measure against cyber threats; it’s a strategic tool that helps businesses navigate the complex landscape of technology decisions, free from bias and with a focus on future-proofing their operations.
The Hidden Superpower
If you’re still undecided about Cyber Essentials, it’s time to see it in a new light.
