Kinetic Achieves Cyber Essentials Plus Certification
We’re pleased to confirm that Kinetic ICT Solutions is now Cyber Essentials Plus certified.
Cyber Essentials is a UK government‑backed cyber security scheme designed to protect organisations against the most common online threats. Achieving the Plus level means our security controls have been independently tested by an accredited assessor, not just self‑declared.
This certification confirms that key protections are not only in place, but working effectively across our systems in real‑world conditions.
What this means for you
Cyber Essentials Plus provides added reassurance that:
Core security controls are properly implemented
Systems are configured and maintained securely
Common cyber risks are actively reduced
Security measures are tested, not just documented
This is particularly relevant for organisations that handle sensitive data, operate in regulated sectors, or work with public‑sector bodies.
What Cyber Essentials Plus covers
The assessment includes hands‑on testing of areas such as:
User access controls
Secure configuration of devices and systems
Protection against malware and phishing
Patch management and update processes
Independent testing helps confirm that these controls are effective in practice, not just on paper.
Why this matters
Cyber security is not a one‑off exercise. Achieving Cyber Essentials Plus supports our wider approach to security: practical, proportionate, and focused on reducing real risk rather than ticking boxes.
It also supports customers who need reassurance around supplier security, cyber insurance requirements, or compliance with recognised UK standards.
If you’d like to understand what Cyber Essentials Plus means for your own organisation, or need help working towards certification, our team is happy to talk.
