Keeping you safe

cyber essentials logo

As part of our ongoing commitment to improving our information security management system we took the decision to gain the Cyber Essentials certification. We’re proud to be the first accountants in Greater Manchester to gain this certification and one of the first in the Northwest.

Cyber Essentials certification is aimed at helping companies guard their client data from hackers.

Keeping your data and information confidential is a top priority for our team.

In today’s climate of increasing numbers of cyber-criminals hacking into the servers of professional advisory firms we’re committed to staying one step ahead for our clients.

This certification provides you with the assurance that we are taking the necessary steps to prevent future cyber threats.

The certification recognises organisations that have taken appropriate steps to protect against most common cyber threats as a baseline for security. It was established by the UK Government in 2014.

Some of the things we do as standard practice in our business include:

●       downloading software and app updates as soon as they appear on devices and computers

●       using strong passwords

●       deleting suspicious emails

●       using anti-virus software

●       training staff

If you need to upgrade your own cyber protection for your business, talk to us and we can point you in the right direction.
