Format14CRM awarded Cyber Essentials Certification

Format14CRM is proud to announce that we have been awarded Cyber Essential Certification.

With cybersecurity threats an increasing risk for businesses & consumers, it is imperative to both our clients and our own business that we take every precaution to protect our data. As part of our efforts to maintain robust and evolving security processes and systems, we worked with the National Cyber Security Centre to attain the Cyber Essentials Certification in July 2020. This certification gives our clients the peace of mind that an independent, qualified assessor has validated our security processes and systems against the scheme’s five security controls and deems them to be sound and effective.

The Cyber Essentials Certification is a Government-backed and industry-supported scheme that helps businesses protect themselves against the growing threat of cyber-attacks and provides a clear statement of the basic controls organisations should have in place to protect them. The certification defines a focused set of controls which provide clear guidance on basic cybersecurity for organisations of all sizes, and offers a sound foundation of cyber security measures that all types of organisations can implement.

“Cybersecurity is now a board level agenda item for all businesses. Despite it having all the usual technical jargon, what is clear is the need for ongoing awareness, education & vigilance,” comments David Wrench, Delivery & Professional Services Director at Format14CRM. “At Format14CRM, our mindset & culture now reflects security in all that we do. Safe today & tomorrow!”
