The five pillars of Cyber Essentials

Cyber Essentials helps organisations stay safe by ensuring five technical controls are in place.

Firewalls

Protecting private networks from unauthorised access by using firewalls and controlling inbound and outbound connections.

Secure configuration

Ensuring systems are configured securely by removing unnecessary software, default passwords and accounts

Security update management

Keeping all software and systems up to date by applying security patches within 14 days of release.

User access control

Securing user accounts with strong passwords and multi-factor authentication, and limiting user access to only what is necessary.

Malware protection

Installing and maintaining anti-malware software on all devices to prevent viruses and other malicious software from getting in.
