Promoting Cyber Essentials Cyber Security
In the UK, Ukraine and globally
The cyber security situation globally is broadly similar.
Post pandemic around 50% of people are working from home and 50% from an office.
Hybrid working is the norm now. This is especially true in the SMB ( Small and Medium Size Business ) and SOHO ( Small Office Home Office ) sectors.
Sometimes people work from home, sometimes from an office and sometimes while travelling or in the so called “ 3rd Office “ ( Hotel, Cafe, Restaurant, Business Centre etc ),
The risks of cyber attack are increased by this hybrid working although I fully support flexible working and working from home and remotely.
In addition Bring Your Own Device ( BYOD ) ie the use of personal laptops and mobile phones within businesses is also common.
This means that people could in any week be working with their home or personal devices in their home ( where of course there are other family members ) on transport in their own or a clients offices and elsewhere.
The Cyber Essentials Cyber Security standard is the most appropriate Cyber Security Standard for SMB’s and SOHO’s and the correct implementation of this standard will stop 80% plus of Cyber Attacks. It will also enable free or reduced price Cyber Insurance and the implementation of Continuous Monitoring will stop 90% plus of Cyber Attacks.
Cyber Essentials is still somewhat unknown by the general working population in the UK and also abroad.
Cyber Essentials in the UK is promoted by Cyber Essentials Certification Bodies ( CECB’s ) such as UK Cyber Security and also by the Police generally and the Cyber Resilience Centres in particular.
