Essential 8 Certification
Unlock enhanced Cyber Protection with Perigon One’s P1 E8 Certification
What’s the best way to ensure you’re doing everything you can to protect your business from cyber threats?
The answer is simple. You can effectively reduce your risk by adhering to the eight critical mitigation strategies outlined in the Australian Cyber Security Centre’s (ACSC) Essential 8 Framework.
So just how closely are you following the Essential 8 principles?
The Perigon One P1 E8 Certification is the simple way to find out. This certification provides you with complete peace of mind, ensuring you’re taking the right measures to build a secure digital environment and minimise your risk by embracing the eight fundamentals of the ACSC’s Essential 8 guidelines:
Stopping malicious code from running rampant across your network by allowing only approved applications to be installed and used by your employees and teams.
Ensuring applications are updated as soon as software developers release patches that resolve security issues or potential vulnerabilities.
Adjusting the settings within each Microsoft 365 application for maximum protection while still ensuring the tools are user-friendly for teams.
Enhancing app security to make it more challenging for cybercriminals to exploit user tools and gain access to sensitive or confidential business information.
Ensuring users only have access to the tools and data they need, which helps to keep highly sensitive business data protected with limited access points.
Updating the Windows operating system (OS) immediately after release, so users have access to the latest, most secure OS version.
Requiring users to sign in to apps and services with two forms of authentication (2FA) – e.g., a password and a one-time code – to verify their identity.
Regularly backing up business data and maintaining safe, secure copies. Despite best efforts, things can go wrong, so having a contingency plan is key to a speedy recovery.
