Dial A Geek achieves special cyber security assurance status
Dial A Geek, an IT support/cybersecurity assistance company, has achieved IASME cyber assurance level 2 status, becoming an official certification body for IASME cyber assurance and cyber essentials. This accreditation is vital in the face of a recent National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC) report warning of an increased threat across sectors and a global expansion in commercial cyber intrusions.
As the holiday season brings a wave of Christmas hackers, the situation is expected to worsen for businesses. Consequently, major clients, investors, and the UK government are urging organisations to adopt cybersecurity measures like IASME Cyber Assurance and Cyber Essentials.
Gildas Jones, founder of Dial A Geek, noted a surge in organisations seeking a straightforward way to ensure protection. In response, the company not only performs the necessary technical preparations but also streamlines and expedites the certification process.
With cybersecurity breaches spiking during the festive season, compliance with frameworks like IASME Cyber Assurance and Cyber Essentials is gaining prominence. The NCSC’s forecast emphasises the escalating risks, making certification a crucial factor for businesses competing for contracts in 2024.
Taking prompt action on cybersecurity is becoming a decisive strategy for businesses navigating an increasingly digital landscape. Dial A Geek’s achievement of IASME Cyber Assurance Level 2 positions it as a valuable ally for enterprises seeking robust cybersecurity solutions.
