Cyber Essentials Basic Description

Cyber Essentials Basic is a certification service provided by Ruptura InfoSecurity, an IASME and NCSC approved certification body. The service helps organizations achieve UK Government-backed Cyber Essentials Basic certification through a questionnaire-based assessment process. The certification covers five key technical control areas: Access Controls, Patching & Updates, Malware Protection, Secure Configuration, and Firewalls & Routers. Organizations complete a cyber security questionnaire that is assessed by the certification body to determine compliance with the scheme requirements. The assessment evaluates security practices including permission management, multi-factor authentication enforcement, vulnerability patching timelines, anti-malware deployment, device hardening, network segmentation, and firewall configurations. Organizations must demonstrate controls such as least privilege access, 14-day patching for critical vulnerabilities, 24-hour malware signature updates, and proper network security configurations. The service includes access to dedicated assessors who provide technical guidance throughout the certification process. If initial submissions are non-compliant, the certification body works with organizations to identify required amendments before issuing certification. The certification includes optional £25,000 cyber insurance coverage. Pricing is tiered based on organization size, ranging from micro businesses (1-9 employees) to large enterprises (250+ employees). The service offers same-day certification options and is designed to help organizations meet procurement requirements that mandate Cyber Essentials certification.
