What is the Iasme Cyber Assurance Standard?
IASME Cyber Assurance: Bridging the Gap to Comprehensive Cyber Security
Developed through a government-funded initiative, IASME Cyber Assurance stands as a testament to the commitment to making cyber security accessible and affordable. Designed as a pragmatic alternative to the rigorous ISO 27001, this certification enables small and medium enterprises (SMEs) within supply chains to affirm their cyber security measures without the daunting costs. It signifies a proactive step towards safeguarding customer information, aligning with the best practices in cyber security, privacy, and data protection.
IASME Cyber Assurance, evolving from the foundational IASME Governance standard, is meticulously crafted to align with the UK Government's 10 steps to Cyber Security. This certification caters specifically to the needs of SMEs, offering a realistic and attainable pathway to demonstrate their commitment to cyber security and data protection compliance. Recognised by a broad spectrum of UK and international industry sectors, including the UK Ministry of Justice and the Government of Jersey, IASME Cyber Assurance has garnered acceptance as a viable alternative to other international standards.
The certification encompasses two distinct levels: Level 1 Verified Assessment and Level 2 Audited, ensuring flexibility and scalability according to an organisation's specific needs. To maintain the integrity and continuity of the certification process, holding a valid Cyber Essentials certificate is a prerequisite, with the option for organiaations to acquire both certifications concurrently through our comprehensive support.
By choosing IASME Cyber Assurance, businesses not only adhere to the GDPR / UK Data Protection Act requirements but also position themselves as trusted entities in their respective sectors. This certification is more than a compliance measure; it's a strategic investment in the future security and resilience of your business.
