Strengthening Our Security Standards: Renewed Cyber Essentials PLUS Certification 

Written by Emma Lower, Chief Executive 

Protecting the data of our customers and partners is a responsibility we take seriously. As a social enterprise providing affordable funding solutions for eligible homeowners across the UK, the security of sensitive financial and personal information is paramount. We’re pleased to announce that we have renewed our Cyber Essentials PLUS certification for another year. This achievement reflects our commitment to maintaining robust cybersecurity measures across our organisation, ensuring that we continue to deliver trusted services to the individuals and councils we work with. 

What Is Cyber Essentials PLUS? 

Cyber Essentials PLUS is a UK government-backed certification requiring a thorough technical assessment of our systems. Its purpose is to safeguard organisations against common cyber threats. Renewing this certification demonstrates that our ICT defences meet stringent standards, ensuring the continued protection of sensitive information. 

Why It Matters 

Achieving this certification isn’t just a compliance exercise—it’s an important step in maintaining the trust of everyone we work with. By reinforcing our security infrastructure, we ensure that the data entrusted to us remains secure, allowing us to focus on providing valuable services to our customers and council partners

Looking Ahead 

While this certification marks a milestone, cybersecurity is an ongoing process. We remain committed to regularly reviewing and improving our systems to meet the evolving challenges of the digital world.
