Stainless Metalcraft in Chatteris awarded top cybersecurity rating with Cyber Essentials Plus

A Chatteris-based manufacturer has achieved excellence in cybersecurity.

Stainless Metalcraft which manufactures high-integrity, mission-critical components for some of the world’s most hazardous and dangerous environments, has achieved the status through Cyber Essentials Plus.

This rigorous cybersecurity accreditation demonstrates the company's commitment to protecting sensitive data and information security.

Cyber Essentials Plus is a government-backed scheme to help organisations protect themselves against common cyber-attacks such as phishing and spear-phishing attempts.

It is awarded to organisations that meet stringent cybersecurity standards set by the UK government and demonstrates Stainless Metalcraft’s commitment to protecting its business - and those of its customers and suppliers - from potential cyber threats.

Christopher Duggan, managing director at Stainless Metalcraft, said: ‘’We are proud to have been awarded the Cyber Essentials Plus certification, which assures our customers that their data and information are secure and protected.

“As part of securing this accreditation, we have reviewed and updated our approach to cyber security in line with industry best practice. The nature of cyber threats is constantly evolving so the accreditation is not an end in itself but provides recognition of our approach and commitment to taking all necessary measures to protect data within our business and wider supply chains.”

To achieve the Cyber Essentials Plus certification, Stainless Metalcraft underwent a comprehensive independent assessment of its cybersecurity measures and had to demonstrate the controls they have implemented to mitigate the risk from common internet-based threats.
