APM are pleased to announce we are Cyber Essen­tials cer­ti­fied. This is a UK gov­ern­ment backed scheme to help organ­i­sa­tions pro­tect them­selves against cyber attacks.

Why do we have it?
• Helps us guard against com­mon cyber threats
• The cer­ti­fi­ca­tion gives us peace of mind that our defences will pro­tect against com­mon cyber threats
• Demon­strates to our clients, insur­ers and inter­est­ed par­ties, our com­mit­ment to cyber secu­ri­ty

Cyber Essen­tials pro­vides 5 con­trols that could pre­vent around 80% of cyber attacks.

The five basic con­trols with­in Cyber Essen­tials were cho­sen because, when prop­er­ly imple­ment­ed, they will help to pro­tect against unskilled inter­net-based attack­ers using com­mod­i­ty capa­bil­i­ties – which are freely avail­able on the inter­net.
