The benefits of Cyber Essentials certification
Virtually every organisation relies on digital services in some way, but where there is technology there is risk.
Many organisations – smaller ones in particular – believe they are unlikely to be targeted by cyber attackers, but that is to misunderstand the nature of modern cyber crime. In fact, the majority of criminal hackers aren’t state-sponsored agencies or activists looking for high-profile targets, and they don’t spend countless hours staking out and researching their victims.
Instead, they’re more opportunistic, using automated attacks to exploit poorly protected targets.
Just as an organised burglar might scout for inadequately safeguarded properties, the modern cyber criminal will send phishing emails or network scans looking for vulnerable systems.
