EBS is pleased to announce that our commitment to cybersecurity, alongside the continued delivery and growth of our cybersecurity services, has led to our promotion to Advanced Partner status within the CyberSmart Partner Programme.
Building cyber resilience across the Midlands
The Government’s Cyber Security Breaches Survey, released in April this year, identified that:
- 43% of UK businesses identified a cyber breach or attack in the previous 12 months
- 29% of businesses that identified a cyber breach or attack experienced one at least weekly.
The statistics show that cyber resilience needs to be an ongoing commitment for SMEs. We understand that Cyber Essentials and Cyber Essentials Plus provide an important foundation for businesses but one that can need help from a technology partner to continue to implement effectively.
Our approach to cybersecurity is focused on ongoing partnership with SMEs to embed strong cyber protection. This approach is recognised by CyberSmart with our promotion to Advanced Partner and underpinned by our role as a Community Ambassador with West Midlands Cyber Resilience Centre.
EBS and CyberSmart: how we work together for your business
Our Advanced Partner status with CyberSmart increases our internal knowledge, skills and threat intelligence through their training, webinars and access to cybersecurity specialists. This enables us to share the latest cyber landscape with our customers and strengthen their cyber resilience.
Sandy Gaggini, our Managing Director, said “We’ve been a CyberSmart partner since April 2023. Becoming an Advanced Partner not only highlights our commitment to cybersecurity but also our growth. We continue to expand our cybersecurity solutions and increase our knowledge to give our customers peace of mind.”
