At Synapx, we are proud to announce that we have achieved the Cyber Essentials accreditation, marking a significant step in our commitment to safeguarding the data and systems of our clients.

This UK government-backed certification demonstrates that we have implemented the necessary security measures to protect against common cyber threats, reinforcing our dedication to providing a secure foundation for all our projects.

Cyber Essentials: The Foundation of Security

Protecting sensitive data from cyber threats is a critical concern for every business. Cyber Essentials is a UK government-backed certification designed to help organisations safeguard their data and systems from common cyberattacks. This certification outlines five key technical controls that improve an organisation’s security posture:

  1. Firewalls: Ensure that all devices connected to the internet are protected to prevent unauthorised access.
  2. Secure Configuration: Improve security by removing unnecessary applications and adjusting system settings.
  3. Access Control: Manage user access to sensitive data based on roles.
  4. Malware Protection: Detect and remove harmful software with updated anti-malware tools.
  5. Patch Management: Keep systems and software up to date, closing potential vulnerabilities.

By achieving Cyber Essentials certification, Synapx not only ensures we meet industry standards but also assures our clients that their data is secure. This certification strengthens our role as a trusted partner in cybersecurity, helping our clients reduce the risks of data breaches and other threats.
