What is IASME Cyber Assurance?

The IASME Cyber Assurance standard is a comprehensive, flexible, and affordable way to achieve cyber resilience. It demonstrates that an organisation has put into place a range of important controls related to cyber security and data protection.

Gaining certification provides a structured way for your organisation to achieve cyber resilience for a realistic cost. It indicates that you are taking good steps to protect your information and business systems. IASME Cyber Assurance certification is recognised by a wide range of industry sectors as a demonstration that an organisation has implemented appropriate controls to mitigate cyber risk within the supply chain.

The IASME Cyber Assurance certification is available in two levels: Level One Verified Assessment and Level Two Audited.

You must pass your Level One assessment before you apply for Level Two.

Tailored to your organisation’s size

The IASME Cyber Assurance standard has been written to address the security needs of organisations of all sizes, from the sole practitioner to large enterprises. As the full standard is broad-in-scope, it contains requirements that aren’t necessarily applicable for everyone.

For that reason, IASME has tailored the standard to reduce the compliance burden for smaller organisations.
When you apply to complete an assessment, the size of your organisation will determine the appropriate depth of the IASME Cyber Assurance Standard and the themes and requirements that are relevant to you.

The process of certifying

To purchase IASME Cyber Assurance, you must have a valid Cyber Essentials certificate with at least one month left in date. If this is not the case it will be added to your basket at checkout.

The scope of your Cyber Essentials and IASME Cyber Assurance certification must cover the whole of your organisation.

If your organisation is outside the UK, please contact us at [email protected] to discuss the prerequisite certification.

IASME Cyber Assurance is available in two levels

Level One – Verified Assessment

Level One consists of a verified assessment reviewed by an independent Assessor.

After registering for certification, you are given access to the secure assessment platform where you will answer the verified self-assessment questions. A senior member of the board or equivalent from your organisation must e-sign a document to verify that all the answers are true and then a qualified external Assessor will mark your answers.

The pricing structure for Level One certification is based on the size of your organisation:

Micro businesses
(0-9 employees)

$420£320 + VAT€380

Small businesses
(10-49 employees)

$570£440 + VAT€520

Medium businesses
(50-249 employees)

$650£500 + VAT€590

Large businesses
(249+ employees)

$780£600 + VAT€710

Level Two – Audited

Level Two involves an audit of your processes, procedures and controls required by the IASME Cyber Assurance standard.

The audit is independent and conducted by an IASME assured Assessor. The Assessor will look at documentation, interview key staff and observe activities. This can be done in person or sometimes remotely (such as via a video call).

You will need to have completed the IASME Cyber Assurance Level One certification before you can proceed to the Level Two audit.
