SyntheSys is delighted to have been recognised for its
proficiency in Cyber Security, having attained the Cyber Essentials Plus
certification. Cyber Essentials is a
Government-backed, industry-supported scheme to help organisations protect
themselves against common online threats.
The certification provides a rigorous test of an
organisation’s cyber security systems through detailed on-site vulnerability
assessments carried out by independent cyber security experts. In addition to the initial self-assessment,
security checks against both internal devices and external facing systems are
designed to ensure that IT security systems can withstand potential hacking and
phishing attacks.
SyntheSys’ Operations Manager, Nikki Haynes, said: “It is
widely recognised that today’s digital age poses an ever-changing cyber
landscape and threat; which is why attaining both levels of Cyber Essentials has
been an important aim for the company from the moment the scheme started.
SyntheSys has always been committed to ensuring
appropriate measures remain in place regarding our information security risk,
as well as to meet ongoing contractual and supply chain needs. Having started with Cyber Essentials, achieving
the next level, Cyber Essentials Plus, demonstrates to our Customers that we
have successfully implemented yet another tier of controls in our endeavours to
combat these threats. As the assessment
included independent onsite testing to a recognised level, this offers an extra
assurance and confidence to anyone working with us that we do indeed take the
cyber threat seriously.’’
