The Certification & Accreditation (C&A) process is typically a government-led cybersecurity initiative for public sector organisations. Our C&A services are available to businesses across all industries.

Investing in this service provides assurance that your systems have the necessary controls in place to effectively manage the risks associated of using different IT applications. 

How we can help 

Our C&A services have helped both public sector organisations and private businesses to gain the assurance they need over their operations. Our experts will work with you to deliver: 

  • stronger security and risk protection against any risks posed by the applications you use
  • expert guidance: The depth and breadth of our experience means you can address your unique challenges with confidence. 

Our information security experts will guide you through the assessment process. Here's what to expect: 

We kick off the process by gathering crucial information to assess potential risks, laying the groundwork for completing the Business Context Questionnaire (BCQ). The BCQ explores key details like your system’s purpose, ownership, and data handling, ensuring we have the full picture to safeguard your organisation from the start. 

We conduct in-depth evaluations to assess the system’s impact on privacy and potential data leaks, pinpointing risks and providing actionable insights to strengthen your security posture. 

Based on the risks identified in the SRA, we will craft and implement tailored controls to actively mitigate threats, boosting your system’s security and resilience.
