Is Cyber Essentials right for your school?

In our latest blog, Cyber Essentials Accreditor, Tom Jarman outlines some of the key misconceptions he hears from schools about Cyber Essentials.

1️⃣ We need multi-factor authentication to pass Cyber Essentials.*
2️⃣ Students are exempt from credential and account sharing.
3️⃣ We’re only a small school - we don’t need Cyber Essentials.
4️⃣ We can’t pass Cyber Essentials with unsupported or end-of-life software.
5️⃣ We need to apply all updates within 14 days of release.

*We always recommend MFA but you can’t fail Cyber Essentials on MFA alone.
