How long do you have to complete and submit a Cyber Essentials assessment?

You have 6 months to complete your assessment before your account is archived. Unfortunately, a refund cannot be issued, so it is best not to apply until you think you are ready for your assessment.

We highly recommend URM to any business looking to achieve Cyber Essentials or Cyber Essentials Plus certification—their expertise and customer service are second to none!
