IASME Cyber Assurance

IASME Cyber Assurance offers affordable cyber security certification, ensuring strong data protection and is a recognised ISO 27001 alternative for SMEs.

What is IASME Cyber Assurance?

The IASME Cyber Assurance standard is a comprehensive, flexible, and affordable cyber security certification designed to help organisations implement key security, privacy, and data protection measures. It enables small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) to demonstrate robust cyber security practices at a realistic cost, protecting their customers' information.

Widely recognised as an alternative to ISO 27001, which can be intense and costly for smaller businesses, IASME Cyber Assurance is accepted across various industry sectors.

The process of certifying

Cyber security is an ongoing journey of learning and improvement, and IASME Cyber Assurance is just one step in that process.

  • The scope of your IASME Cyber Assurance certification cannot exceed the scope covered by your Cyber Essentials certification.
  • To purchase an IASME Cyber Assurance assessment, you must have a valid Cyber Essentials certification.
  • To pass, your Cyber Essentials certification must have at least one month remaining before expiration.

Before advancing to this level, your organisation must first demonstrate that the basics are in place. An up-to-date Cyber Essentials certification, or IASME Cyber Baseline for non-UK organisations, is required as a prerequisite for IASME Cyber Assurance certification.
