Cyber Essentials Gap Analysis
If your organisation is at the very early stages of exploring Cyber Essentials certification and you want to learn what requirements need to be met across the 5 core areas and, more importantly, whether your existing controls meet those requirements, URM’s Gap Analysis is ideally suited to you. As an Assured Service Provider, one of URM’s Cyber Advisors (Cyber Essentials) will walk and talk you through each question that comprises the assessment to clarify the level of expected cyber security, whether your current controls/policies meet the requirements and provide options on how to remediate any non-compliant areas. Following the gap analysis, URM’s Cyber Advisor (Cyber Essentials) will provide you with a formal report documenting the outstanding actions which can then be used to develop a project action plan to address any gaps.
