Adams Harrison retains Cyber Essentials Plus for another year
Adams Harrison Solicitors take very seriously it’s cyber security and protection of client data.
We upgraded our cyber security certification to Cyber Essentials Plus last year and are pleased to report that we have been re-certified for a further 12 months.
What is Cyber Essentials Plus?
Cyber Essentials Plus is a UK government-backed cyber security certification. It shows that an organisation has put key technical controls in place to protect against common online threats such as phishing, malware, password attacks and unauthorised access.
The “Plus” version is stronger than standard Cyber Essentials because it includes an independent technical assessment. In other words, an external assessor tests the organisation’s systems to check that the protections are actually working.
It helps protect client personal data by requiring controls such as:
- Secure configuration of computers, devices and systems
- Firewalls and internet protections to reduce unauthorised access
- Access control, so only appropriate people can access client information
- Malware protection to help prevent viruses and harmful software
- Security updates and patching to fix known vulnerabilities quickly
We work hard to handle your personal data with care and put in place these practical steps to reduce the risk of cyber attacks, data loss or unauthorised disclosure.
