The scope of the Cyber Essentials Plus must be the same as the Cyber Essentials scope.
It is up to you how you want to segregate your infrastructure and which divisions you would like to exclude. The excluded or included parts of the infrastructure must be segregated by some means, e.g. a firewall or a physical boundary.
URM’s in-depth knowledge of cybersecurity best practices and the Cyber Essentials framework helped us strengthen both ours and our client’s security posture while ensuring full compliance. Their consultants were professional, approachable, and incredibly thorough, offering practical advice tailored to the specific needs. The Cyber Essentials Plus assessment was conducted with great efficiency, and URM’s supportive approach meant we felt well-prepared at every stage. Thanks to their expertise, we successfully achieved certification for us and our clients, giving us (and our clients) greater confidence in our cybersecurity resilience.
