We’re thrilled to announce that Sentinel Data has officially achieved our latest Cyber Essentials Plus certification again for the coming year! This rigorous, government-backed certification demonstrates our unwavering commitment to cybersecurity excellence.
The Key Difference: Cyber Essentials vs Cyber Essentials Plus
Cyber Essentials: Self-assessment questionnaire completed by your organisation Cyber Essentials Plus: Independent technical testing and verification by certified assessors

What Makes This Special?
The certification process included:
