Secure your supply chain
Cyber Essentials provides a clear way for you to gain assurance that your suppliers take cyber security seriously and that they're protected against most common cyber attacks.
Supply chain cyber attacks are rising, yet only a small fraction of UK businesses assess the risks posed by their immediate suppliers.
This leaves critical vulnerabilities that attackers are actively exploiting. Protect your operations from disruption; require Cyber Essentials across your supply chain.
Embedding Cyber Essentials in your supply chain
Cyber Essentials is a proven, government-backed standard that significantly reduces exposure to common attacks, increasing cyber security across supply chains and giving organisations confidence in the cyber security of their suppliers.
That is why we are calling on large organisations to better address cyber security risk by developing approaches to improve adoption of Cyber Essentials within their supply chain.
Our Cyber Essentials in the Supply Chain Playbook gives organisations the resources they need to embed Cyber Essentials in their supply chain.
Cyber Essentials can play a significant role as an assurance tool and help address the challenges many organisations face in securing and managing supply chains.
- A tangible way for organisations to gain confidence that suppliers, or other third parties, have effectively implemented fundamental technical controls.
- Save time and reduce complexity on cyber security due diligence. Suppliers can also use Cyber Essentials as evidence across their customer base, reducing the time spent filling out duplicative questionnaires.
The IASME Supplier Check tool can be used by organisations wishing to verify the Cyber Essentials and Cyber Essentials Plus certification for companies within their supply chain.
