Cyber Essentials and Cyber Essentials Plus Certification Assessment 

Cyber Essentials and Cyber Essentials Plus are critical for proving your organization’s cyber hygiene—but passing the test means more than ticking boxes.

This solution brief shows how Silverfort helps organizations meet and exceed the requirements of both Cyber Essentials and Cyber Essentials Plus by focusing on what matters most: access control and multi-factor authentication (MFA). You’ll learn how Silverfort maps directly to key technical controls in the frameworks—while also closing critical security gaps that the standard guidance overlooks.

From privileged account protection to stopping lateral movement, Silverfort adds proactive identity defenses that not only help you pass the audit but also strengthen your organization’s real-world security posture. The brief also explores often-excluded areas like command-line access, non-human identities (NHIs), and advanced risk-based MFA policies.

In this solution brief, you’ll learn how to:

  • Map Silverfort’s capabilities directly to Cyber Essentials requirements for MFA and access control.
  • Protect high-risk pathways like service accounts, remote access, and privileged credentials.
  • Strengthen compliance with proactive controls like real-time risk analysis and session-level enforcement.

Download the solution brief to discover how Silverfort helps you achieve compliance with confidence—while defending against the threats compliance frameworks don’t always cover.
