B2 was invited to tender for a large Government contract and we needed to be Cyber Essentials certified. Bulletproof’s experienced team guided us through the process, taking us from not knowing what this was through to full Cyber Essentials certification. We’re pleased to say that we won the tender and are now in a position to follow up more Government and large business contracts.

Frequently asked questions
What’s the difference between Cyber Essentials and Cyber Essentials Plus?
A Cyber Essentials assessment consists of completing a questionnaire covering the five key technical controls. Cyber Essentials Plus goes a step further to also include a vulnerability scan of externally facing devices in scope along with a workstation assessment and an internal vulnerability scan.
What is covered in cyber essentials?
Cyber Essentials looks at five key areas of cyber security to ensure your business is operating to strong security standards. These areas are:
- Access control
- Firewalls and routers
- Malware protection
- Secure configuration
- Software updates
Cyber Essential self assessment cost are at a fixed price of £295. In our experience however, most of our clients need expert support to navigate the complexities of the self assessment questionnaire therefore we offer additional support remote help for £595 & on-site support for £1,495.
Does my business have to achieve Cyber Essentials before it achieves Cyber Essentials Plus?
Yes, you must achieve Cyber Essentials first before you can achieve Cyber Essentials Plus.
Does Cyber Essentials Plus require a site visit?
Ideally yes, although in certain circumstances, it can be done remotely.
Do you need to test all the workstations in a business for Cyber Essentials Plus?
If all your workstations are from a common build, we only need to undertake sample-based testing. However, if your organisation has multiple build types and you support BYOD (Bring Your Own Device), then each one will require testing individually.
I have ISO 27001, do I still need Cyber Essentials?
Yes. Cyber Essentials focusses on fundamental IT controls, whereas ISO 27001 takes a more holistic approach, incorporating policies and procedures. As ISO 27001 is much more involved, you’ll find it easier to obtain Cyber Essentials/Cyber Essentials Plus certification if you’re already ISO 27001 compliant. We recommend achieving Cyber Essentials in addition to ISO 27001 as it demonstrates your commitment to good security practices, and some business/customers may only look for your Cyber Essentials certification, or not understand the difference between Cyber Essentials and ISO 27001.
