Cyber Essentials Certification

The Disruption House is proud to announce our Cyber Essentials certification, demonstrating our unwavering commitment to maintaining the highest standards of cybersecurity in our operations.

At The Disruption House, security isn't a checkbox it’s a commitment. That’s why we’re proud to be Cyber Essentials Certified, aligning our practices with UK government-backed standards to safeguard your data and ours.

Cyber Essentials is the UK's official framework for strengthening cyber resilience across businesses. Backed by the National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC), this certification validates that we’ve implemented the essential technical controls needed to defend against the most common and disruptive cyber threats. From firewalls to malware protection, every safeguard is in place to protect our systems and, by extension, your information.

What is Cyber Essentials?

Cyber Essentials is a UK government-backed certification that protects businesses from common cyber attacks. Created by the National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC) in 2014, it provides essential security controls that every organization should implement.

The scheme covers five key technical areas that address the most frequent attack methods. By meeting these standards, businesses significantly reduce their risk from internet-based threats.

The NCSC considers Cyber Essentials the minimum cybersecurity standard for all organizations. Getting certified involves an assessment to verify you have the right digital defenses in place.

Secure Configuration

Our systems are carefully configured to block cyber-criminals, with unnecessary features removed and strong security policies in place.

User Access Control

We maintain strict controls over data and service access, with carefully managed permissions and comprehensive user management processes.

Malware Protection

We use robust systems to detect and block viruses and malicious software before they cause harm, with regular scanning and real-time threat protection.

Security Update Management

We maintain rigorous software updates to prevent cyber criminals exploiting known vulnerabilities, using automated patch management systems.

Firewalls and Internet Gateways

We maintain effective security filters between our networks and the internet to block unauthorized access, using next-generation firewall technology.

Why Cyber Essentials Matters

Recent UK Government statistics reveal alarming cybersecurity trends that highlight the need for robust protection measures.

The financial impact is substantial – cyber attacks cost small businesses an average of £8,460, rising to £13,400 for larger organizations. Beyond immediate losses, businesses face damage to reputation, customer trust, and operations.

Business Benefits of Cyber Essentials

Cyber Essentials certification delivers tangible benefits beyond improved security:

The certification badge shows clients and partners you take data security seriously, building confidence in your services and providing a competitive advantage in procurement, especially for government and corporate contracts.
