Cyber Essentials Certification

O Abdelkader Consultant Ltd is an officially recognised certification body for Cyber Essentials. We guide you through the self-assessment process, help you understand the five key controls, and support you in achieving certification through our secure branded portal. Our service includes readiness checks, policy and procedure templates, and practical advice tailored to your business and sector. The portal allows real-time tracking, secure messaging, and transparent communication throughout your journey.

Cyber Essentials Plus Preparation

While we are not a certification body for Cyber Essentials Plus, we offer consultancy and readiness assessments to help you prepare for the more rigorous technical audit required for Plus certification. We help you review your existing controls, identify gaps, and ensure your policies and technical measures are in line with the requirements. When you are ready, we can refer you to an approved Cyber Essentials Plus certification body and support you throughout the process.

IASME Cyber Assurance (Level 1)

We offer assessment and guidance for IASME Cyber Assurance Level 1, helping your business demonstrate compliance with best practice standards for information security and data protection.

IASME Cyber Assurance (Level 2)

We provide full support for IASME Cyber Assurance Level 2, the audit-based certification that demonstrates your organisation’s commitment to the highest standards of information security. Level 2 builds on the foundation of Level 1 by requiring an independent, third-party audit of your security controls, policies, and procedures. This rigorous assessment verifies that your organisation not only has appropriate documentation in place, but also implements and maintains effective cyber security practices in everyday operations.

Our service includes comprehensive guidance to prepare you for the audit process. We help you organise the required evidence, review your policies and technical controls, and ensure your team is ready for interviews and practical checks. The audit can be conducted remotely or on-site and covers key areas such as risk management, access control, incident response, business continuity, supplier management, and compliance with legal and regulatory requirements.

Achieving IASME Cyber Assurance Level 2 certification demonstrates to your clients, partners, and stakeholders that your organisation’s cyber security is independently verified and meets a recognised industry standard. It is accepted by many UK government and commercial contracts as an alternative to ISO 27001, making it especially valuable for small and medium-sized businesses looking for a practical, cost-effective route to robust assurance.
