Cyber Essentials Plus
Cyber Essentials Plus is the older, slightly more involved sibling of the standard certification. It has the same requirements as Cyber Essentials (you must have all five security controls in place) but differs in one crucial aspect.
While Cyber Essentials is self-assessed, Cyber Essentials Plus also includes an independent assessment carried out by a licensed auditor. After you’ve completed the self-assessment portion of the certification one of the auditors will either come to you or remotely access your network and manually check for the five Cyber Essentials controls.
