At Therser UK, we operate in demanding industries requiring the highest standards of confidentiality and security. From advanced manufacturing to engineering innovation, our clients trust us with proprietary information. This responsibility demands more than technical expertise—it requires a steadfast commitment to cybersecurity.
In a digital era marked by escalating cyber threats, safeguarding sensitive information is paramount. Recognizing this, Therser UK has adopted the Cyber Essentials Requirements for Infrastructure v3.1 (January 2023). By achieving Cyber Essentials certification, we’ve reinforced our commitment to data protection, compliance, and operational excellence. Here’s why this step was vital and how it benefits our partners.
Protecting Sensitive Data: A Non-Negotiable Priority
Cybersecurity is critical for maintaining client trust. Many of the industries we serve, including critical infrastructure and high-tech manufacturing, face significant risks from cyber threats like ransomware and intellectual property theft. The fallout from an attack could disrupt operations and harm reputations.
At Therser UK, we take this responsibility seriously. Cyber Essentials provides a structured framework to mitigate common cyber risks, ensuring our clients’ data remains confidential and secure at all times.
Meeting Industry Standards and Client Expectations
Clients increasingly expect partners to meet stringent cybersecurity standards. Many operate under regulations like GDPR, which prioritize protecting personal and corporate data. Non-compliance risks severe penalties and loss of business opportunities.
Cyber Essentials certification is an independent endorsement of Therser UK’s cybersecurity measures. It assures clients we meet—and often exceed—the baseline requirements for secure operations. In industries where trust is key, certification strengthens our credibility and reliability.
How Cyber Essentials v3.1 Supports Our Goals
The v3.1 update to Cyber Essentials refines its framework to address modern challenges, making it invaluable for businesses like ours. Key improvements align closely with Therser UK’s needs:
-
Firewall Security
Enhanced guidance ensures all devices, including those accessing cloud systems, are protected by properly configured firewalls. This is vital for hybrid environments blending on-site and remote work. -
Access Control
Multi-factor authentication (MFA) and stricter user access controls limit sensitive data to authorized personnel. Regular reviews of permissions bolster our infrastructure's security. -
Malware Protection
Advanced tools like real-time malware detection and sandboxing protect our systems from sophisticated threats, ensuring a resilient digital environment. -
Patch Management
Timely updates to operating systems, applications, and firmware address vulnerabilities swiftly, reducing our exposure to cyber risks.
Building Trust Through Certification
For Therser UK, Cyber Essentials certification is more than compliance—it’s a commitment to trust. Our clients operate in industries where security and reliability are non-negotiable. Certification affirms our proactive efforts to safeguard their interests while maintaining the highest cybersecurity standards.
Future-Proofing Our Operations
The cyber threat landscape evolves constantly. By adopting Cyber Essentials, Therser UK is not only protecting its current operations but preparing for future challenges. This forward-thinking approach ensures we remain a trusted partner for industries that rely on security, resilience, and innovation.
Cybersecurity is no longer optional. At Therser UK, Cyber Essentials represents our dedication to protecting what matters most—our clients, their data, and their trust.
