There are 2 types of Certifications, Cyber Essentials Level 1 and Cyber Essentials Plus.
Cyber Essentials Level 1 Certification
The Cyber Essentials Level 1 does not require an On-site visit and is a self-assessment certification which included a security questionnaire and an external vulnerability scan of internet facing systems within your organisation.
Cyber Essentials Plus Certification
The Cyber Essentials Plus Certification will require an onsite visit by a Cyber Security Specialist to authenticate vulnerability scans of your internal network and internet-facing systems. This will be done together with a self-assessment security questionnaire and the questionnaire will also be authenticated by a Cyber Security Specialist. Before a certification can be awarded an on-site visit by a certified assessor will be carried out.
FAQ’s
What is Cyber Essentials?
Cyber Essentials helps your organisation or business guard against the most common cyber threats and demonstrates your commitment to cyber security. Cyber Essentials is a Government backed and industry supported certification for businesses run by the Information Assurance for Small and Medium Enterprises (IASME)
Why Should I get a Cyber Essentials Certificate?
By implementing cybersecurity controls in your organisation, you will increase efficiency throughout your business, saving you money and improving productivity. A Cyber Essentials or Cyber Essentials Plus badge will enhance your business’s reputation and open new commercial opportunities by proving to your customers that you take the security of their information seriously and are taking the necessary steps to reduce cyber risks.
How long does it last for?
The certification lasts for a year and must be renewed annually to maintain validation. The process will be the same but not as length if you are keeping up with the security controls that were put in place initially.
Steve has helped us to put in place a suitable I.T Solution for a business that has grown and continues to grow rapidly. He is easy to contact at any time, knowledgable, problem solving and very helpful with his advice.
I would have no hesitation in recommending you to anyone who is concerned about security of their data and would encourage every business to become Cyber Essentials accredited
I had the pleasure of working with James Hilditch from Control IT Solutions in Perth today. The service I received was truly exceptional. He demonstrated a deep understanding of my IT needs, providing effective solutions that significantly improved my operations. Communication was clear and timely, and his technical expertise was evident throughout the collaboration. I highly recommend Control IT Solutions for any business looking to enhance its technological capabilities and security.
Thank you very much for all help recently. From helping us with our own internal systems to setting up our clients with cloud computing software like Office 365, you have been a pleasure to work with. We would have absolutely no hesitations in recommending you to anyone in need of desktop support.
Steve has helped my dental practice transfer from a slow out dated computer hardware system to a much faster and easier to use system. The software transfer from the old to new system was seamless which in turn minimised business downtime. Since installation the hardware has been well monitored and supported by Steve. The level of service has been fantastic so far!
Control IT recently helped us with our move of premises and we couldn't be happier with their work. Very friendly and efficient.
Highly recommended. Thanks again.
Control IT helped us upgrade our systems, email and accounting software, as well as setting us up on the cloud and linking all our calendars together.
Their expertise in all matters helped us transition into our new office and I thank them for all the effort they put in.
Control IT is truly a great company and I can, without doubt, recommend them to both customers and business associates safe in the knowledge that they will put everything they can into the work they have been tasked with.
"We would like to thank you for your attention to detail, support and super efficient service and would highly recommend your service and skills to our wider networks"
Control IT Solutions has been helping our dental practice for a while now and they have never let us down. Their speedy and preventative approach to IT problems is effective. Highly recommend as a dental practice.
Doesn’t all this Cyber bullying etc get you worried. Being a Willwriter I have lots of clients sensitive information and wishes for the future, I am so grateful that I have Steve Snow in my camp, I have hourly back up of all my data and then a secondary back up just for piece of mind, it all goes on in the background and Steve’s on it if anything flags up, for less than a decent coffee a day it’s a no brainer! Couldn’t recommend anyone better!
Through the data backups and seamless remote monitoring which has detected and fixed issues before I was aware they had appeared, to the way you made achieving Cyber Essentials accreditation a simple and easy process and provides my clients with the confidence that their information is safe in my systems.
I am truly grateful for all your support and cannot recommend your services highly enough. Every business needs Control IT Solutions supporting them.
Thank you
I found Control IT Solutions very helpful, identified our needs and weaknesses with system and found best packages, then explained how they would operate the installation and walked us through our new software. Top service from start to finish, highly recommend to any company that needs IT support.
We are delighted to have achieved our Cyber Essentials accreditation with the assistance of Control IT Solutions, so much so that we have now engaged them to provide our IT support.
Thanks for your help which is always quick and efficient and never judgemental!. You give us great service and its greatly appreciated.
We started working with Steve over a year ago and he has been absolutely amazing every step of the way!
We had a new computers installed into 4 of our surgeries and reception area - we are a busy NHS & Private dental practice & Steve was so quick & flexible with moving them over with no disruption to the practice. We have recently undergone a renovation within the practice and needed our computers moved into the new reception area, again Steve was beyond helpful & again, there was no disruption to our working areas.
Also he is a great laugh & never fails to put a smile on all our staff's faces when he visits and is always at the end of the phone whenever we have any problems. Would highly recommend control IT to anyone!
Excellent business support from Control IT Solutions. Steve and Bryan are always on hand to help, from the simplest little issues, scheduled maintenance and updates all the way through to more complex, time consuming problems. They are quick, efficient, solution orientated and very friendly at all times.
Steve has recently helped me recover significant amounts of data, files and most specifically, extremely "valuable" photographs that I thought were lost. They were spread over two old laptops and an external hard drive. Steve recovered everything, set it all in order and secured and provided a new external drive sufficient for ten times the amount of material I am starting with. His customer service, attention to detail, and determination to provide exactly what you are looking for is exemplary, I would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending his services for all and any IT support service; on top of all of that, he is approachable, exceptionally friendly and thoroughly professional at all times. First class service guaranteed!
Thank you Steve for the amazing service on renewing my Cyber Security certificate. I did not realize it expired and when I contacted you were so flexible and accommodating in doing it for me at very short notice.
Very professional and approachable!!
Always an excellent service from Steve and the team @ Control IT Solutions, would highly recommend
As an owner of a small, expanding business, I was looking for a little bit more IT support and knowledge to keep our operations smooth, save and reliable.
Steve and his team were recommended and I couldn't ask for more. From the first meeting, where they carefully listened to what our business needs, through the quick delivery of the new products and services to ongoing, regular reviews, the Control IT Solutions is truly superb.
No matter how small the issue we have, they can quickly help,and advise on other products we didn't consider and all of it at affordable price point!
Ryan was an absolute pleasure to deal with. He was very patient, thorough and efficient. He was able to deal with my request swiftly and without any complications. I am currently based in The Netherlands and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this company to anyone based in either in the UK or abroad. I also appreciated his sense of humour :)
I just wanted to officially record that Ryan was 1st class last month in helping me with IT issues – knowledgeable, helpful and patient!
Big thanks to him
James has done a fantastic job with us and managing our account. We always get a fast response and he’s managed to sort all of our issues and answer or questions. The setup was handled really well and meant as little disruption for us as possible
James has gone the extra mile for our company today. What was a frustrating gremlin in a file naming with Adobe PDF, James was able to use his programming skills and experience to work out what the issue was. Whats really impressive is he did not give up, he thought over the problem and tried to reach a solution. He did this over his luncthime - very impressive and great service as has always been the case, from Control IT Solutions.
Control IT Solutions support our IT for our small community charity. Hugely helpful staff and no question is a daft one! Very responsive and always keen to help. Very grateful to have them support our organisation :-)
Amazing support and really efficient at actioning requests. Great team and super friendly helpful service
Big thanks to Control IT Solutions & Ruaridh Stevenson for getting my chrome book working again after it picked up a serious bug. I really thought it was going to be wiped clean but thanks to him he saved all my data. Would highly recommend them.
I was looking to buy a new laptop. I had a specification and had found a laptop online but I wasn’t sure if it was appropriate for my needs. I contacted Steve who was extremely helpful. He quickly got an understanding of what I needed my laptop for and sourced a more appropriate laptop at a cheaper cost. Steve was extremely helpful and efficient. Within hours he sourced a laptop and it arrived the next day. I would highly recommend Steve. He made the process extremely easy and hassle free saving me a lot of time and stress.

This has improved our productivity as a business and gives us peace of mind.

The Team constantly go above and beyond what is required and always have time to help. The service level is streets ahead of anything we have encountered before.
We have used CITS for a number of months now and would highly recommend their services to any business looking for IT Support. Big thanks to Ruaridh, in particular, for his patience and professionalism.
