Cyber-attacks continue to dominate headlines worldwide, exposing enterprises to significant risk and placing them under intense scrutiny with regulators, investors, and customers. Having systems and processes to secure your business is imperative to mitigate the risk of financial loss, loss of sensitive data, operational downtime and more.
The Cyber Essentials mark is a cybersecurity certification, developed by Cyber Security Agency of Singapore (CSA), for organisations that are embarking on their cybersecurity journey. It serves to recognise that the organisation has put in place good cyber hygiene practices to protect their operations and their customers against common cyber attacks.
The Cyber Essentials mark is targeted at organisations with limited IT and/or cybersecurity expertise and resources to dedicate towards protecting IT assets and personnel.
The Cyber Essentials mark is a self-declaration assessment with CSA guided foundational concepts of generally acceptable cybersecurity posture in Singapore. Enterprises can benefit from the framework by implementing the recommended cybersecurity practices in Assets, Secure/Protect, Update, Backup and Respond.
While strengthening the cybersecurity of an organisation is necessary, these cyber security practices must be up to the mark. The CSA cyber security essentials certification is a testament to your organisation’s commitment to secure IT operations. An organisation can gain the following benefits from achieving the certification:
● Affords preparedness against common cyber threats
● Ensure cybersecurity of the organisation is prioritized
● Implement the primary measures for cyber security
