SolaaS Achieves Cyber Essentials Plus – Strengthening Security for Us and Our Clients

We’re proud to announce that SolaaS is now Cyber Essentials Plus accredited, demonstrating our commitment to maintaining the highest standards of cyber security across our systems, processes and customer-facing services.

Cyber Essentials Plus is the highest level of certification within the Government-backed Cyber Essentials scheme. It goes beyond the standard self-assessment and includes a hands-on technical audit, independently verifying that our controls are robust, secure and effectively implemented.

For our clients, this accreditation provides reassurance that SolaaS operates with strong, validated security practices that protect data, reduce cyber risk and support compliance.

Why Cyber Essentials Plus Matters

Cyber Essentials Plus focuses on five key security controls critical to defending against the most common threats:

• Firewalls and secure configuration
• User access control
• Malware protection
• Patch management
• Secure internet gateways

Passing the Plus assessment confirms that these controls aren’t just documented, they’re actively working across our environment.

For a managed service provider, this level of assurance is essential. It means that the technology we use to support clients is protected by industry-recognised security standards and regularly checked by external experts.

Helping Our Clients Achieve the Same

Achieving Cyber Essentials or Cyber Essentials Plus isn’t just about a badge, it’s about building resilience and confidence throughout your organisation. SolaaS is already working with a growing number of clients to help them prepare for and achieve certification.

We support organisations by:

• Reviewing current IT environments against Cyber Essentials requirements
• Providing clear recommendations and remediation plans
• Implementing necessary security controls (patching, MFA, configuration hardening, etc.)
• Assisting with documentation and readiness for assessment
• Carrying out ongoing monitoring and updates to ensure compliance is maintained

Whether you want to achieve Cyber Essentials for the first time or progress to the more rigorous Cyber Essentials Plus, our team provides the guidance and hands-on support you need.

Secure Today. Confident Tomorrow.

Cyber security threats continue to evolve, and gaining Cyber Essentials Plus is an important step in keeping our services, and our clients, protected. We’re delighted to share this milestone and even more excited to help other businesses reach the same standard.
