Services

Cyber certification support that gets into the technical detail.

Most businesses do not fail because they are reckless. They fail because small gaps sit unnoticed in Microsoft 365, device patching, access control or cloud service configuration.

01

Cyber Essentials readiness review

We check your current setup before you submit, flag weak spots and give you a clear action plan.

02

Microsoft 365 security hardening

MFA, admin accounts, mailbox security, sharing, conditional access basics and tenant settings reviewed with certification in mind.

03

Cyber Essentials Plus preparation

Prepare for the extra technical testing involved in Cyber Essentials Plus before the formal process begins.

04

Device and patching checks

Identify unsupported operating systems, old software, missing updates, unmanaged laptops and mobile device risks.

05

Renewal and failed submission support

If your renewal is due, or you have got stuck, we help you understand what changed and what needs fixing.

06

Plain-English action plan

Prioritised fixes, evidence guidance and practical next steps that your team can actually follow.

Common failure point

Cloud accounts, MFA and Microsoft 365 settings deserve serious attention.

Cyber Essentials is not just antivirus and Windows updates. Shared mailboxes, administrator accounts, cloud apps, unsupported devices and unmanaged software can all make the process harder than it needs to be.

We review:

  • Firewall and internet gateway setup
  • Secure configuration and admin accounts
  • Security updates and patching
  • User access control and MFA
  • Malware protection and device security

ISO 27001

ISO 27001 readiness support for businesses that need to look credible.

CyberCert can help you prepare the technical side of ISO 27001 readiness, especially where Microsoft 365, SharePoint, device security, access control and evidence collection are involved.

Useful when you need:

  • Microsoft 365 security evidence
  • Device encryption and patching checks
  • User access and MFA review
  • Supplier assurance and tender support
  • Plain-English remediation tasks
