[Manchester, 12/20/2024] – Creative Networks is delighted to announce that we have successfully achieved IASME Cyber Assurance Level 1 certification, reinforcing our commitment to delivering the highest standards of cybersecurity and data protection for our customers. This milestone highlights our dedication to maintaining a secure and compliant operating environment, protecting sensitive information from the ever-growing risks of cyber threats.
What is IASME Cyber Assurance Level 1?
The IASME Cyber Assurance certification, developed by IASME Consortium, is a recognised framework designed to improve the cybersecurity posture of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). It provides independent assurance that an organisation has implemented a range of defined Cybersecurity, Privacy, and Data protection measures.
Building on the Cyber Essentials Plus standard, which focuses on basic Cybersecurity controls verified through a technical audit, the IASME certification takes a broader approach to include advanced governance standards such as risk assessment and management.
Our Journey to Certification
Achieving the IASME Cyber Assurance Level 1 certification was no small feat. Creative Networks underwent a rigorous evaluation process that assessed our comprehensive Cybersecurity and Compliance measures. This included detailed audits of our governance structures, risk management practices, and data protection frameworks, all designed to meet and exceed the stringent requirements of the IASME standard.
Our team collaborated closely with industry experts throughout the process, ensuring every aspect of our cybersecurity framework aligns with recognised best practices and legal regulations, such as GDPR. This certification signifies not just an accomplishment but a foundation for continuous improvement in securing our customers’ data.
