    How the CE+ Certification Process Works at Zeta Force

    Technical Assessment Begins

    • Zeta Force performs the Cyber Essentials Plus technical audit—either remotely or on-site, based on your requirements.

    Initial Outcome

    • If your systems meet all CE+ requirements, you’ll be awarded the Cyber Essentials Plus Certificate.
    • If there are areas that do not meet the criteria, you’ll receive a remediation report outlining what needs to be fixed.

    Remediation Window (Up to 30 Days)

    • You will have up to 30 days (as per NCSC guidelines) to address any failed elements.

    Re-Test of Failed Items

    • Zeta Force conducts one remote re-test of the previously failed items after your fixes are complete.

    Final Certification Decision

    • If all items pass in the re-test, your CE+ certification is issued.
    • If the re-test still fails, further remediation will be needed, and the certification process restarts.

    Why Choose Cyber Essentials Plus (CE+)?

    Stronger Assurance Through Advanced Technical Auditing

    Cyber Essentials Plus (CE+) offers a higher level of cyber security assurance than the basic Cyber Essentials certification. It includes a series of hands-on technical assessments, providing independent verification that your controls are not only in place—but functioning effectively.

    What Does CE+ with Zeta Force Involve?

    • In-Depth Testing CE+ covers all the controls from the basic Cyber Essentials scheme, with additional external vulnerability scansinternal assessments, and either on-site or remote technical audits.
    • Technical Audit Scope Zeta Force auditors will assess:
      • A representative sample of user devices
      • All internet gateways
      • All servers and systems accessible to unauthenticated internet users
      • Virtual desktop environments, if applicable
    • Sampling Methodology Around 10% of systems will be randomly tested. Based on the results, our assessor will determine whether additional testing is necessary.
    • Audit Timing Requirement You must complete your CE+ audit within 3 months of achieving your basic Cyber Essentials certification.

    Starting with CE+?

    If you haven’t done Cyber Essentials yet, you can begin your CE+ journey by completing the Self-Assessment Questionnaire (SAQ)—the first step of the CE+ certification process.

    Remote or On-Site Delivery

    While many assessments are conducted on-site, Zeta Force also offers the flexibility of remote audits, depending on your infrastructure and locations.

    Cost Transparency

    The cost of Cyber Essentials Plus depends on your organisation's network sizenumber of endpoints, and overall system complexity. Zeta Force provides custom quotes based on your specific environment and requirements.
