Cyber Essentials is a government-backed scheme that helps businesses protect themselves against a range of the most common cyber attacks. Cyber attacks come in many shapes and sizes, but the vast majority are very basic in nature. They’re the digital equivalent of a thief trying your front door to see if it’s unlocked. The controls required to achieve the certification are designed to minimise and prevent these attacks.
What are the benefits of the Cyber Essentials accreditation?

Give Rearo a clear picture of our current cyber security level.
Rearo's IT Implementation Manager, Stuart Hutcheson, recently completed the Cyber Essentials programme for Rearo.
To achieve the certification, Rearo were assessed on five key areas:
- Firewalls
- Secure configuration
- User access control
- Malware protection
- Patch management
The project was a success, Rearo achieved the certification and now moves on to the continuous improvement stage.
In many commercial sectors, companies must demonstrate a certain level of cybersecurity to be eligible for contracts or partnerships. Now that Rearo is Cyber Essentials Certified, they can qualify for government contracts that require Cyber Essentials certification.
Rearo is proud to display the Cyber Essentials badge to show clients that they take cybersecurity seriously.
