Insurance and fixes
IASME's cyber liability insurance comes with the certificate for UK organisations with turnover under £20m that certify the whole organisation and opt in. It covers incident response up to a £25,000 limit, underwritten by AIG UK. It does not cover money stolen by electronic means or cyber fraud, so check your own cover too.
Fixing what the review finds: on our Managed and Secure plans, remote fixes to Microsoft 365 and your managed computers are included. On Essentials it is £95 an hour, and £125 an hour without a plan, or a fixed price once we've checked your setup.
Certification is decided by the assessor. We prepare you and support the submission.

How DCC works and what Level 1 needs
DCC is run by the Ministry of Defence with IASME. Each contract's Cyber Risk Profile sets the level.
Levels 0 and 1 need Cyber Essentials. Levels 2 and 3 need Cyber Essentials Plus, and we quote them.
DCC runs on a 3-year cycle with a yearly check-in. Your Cyber Essentials certificate still has to be renewed every year, which the Level 0 and Level 1 packages do.
Level 1 has 101 controls. Work on controls you don't yet have is £95 an hour on our Essentials plan or £125 an hour without a plan, or we fix a price once we've checked your setup. On Managed and Secure, remote fixes to Microsoft 365 and your managed computers are already included. Certification is decided by the certification body.
