The Cyber Essentials readiness tool
A free resource that guides organisations through questions related to the Cyber Essentials criteria to help prepare them for certification. The tool asks questions about an organisation’s use of hardware, software, and boundary devices such as firewalls, as well as use of passwords and protections against malware and provides clear, non-technical advice for the user. Upon completion of the tool the user receives a tailored action plan that outlines the steps they need to take to achieve Cyber Essentials certification. This tool was developed by IASME on behalf of the NCSC – a part of GCHQ.
