Enquire About the Free-Audit Offer →Not ready to change IT support? Pay an agreed one-off audit fee. You'll still receive the findings and recommendations for the agreed scope, with no ongoing support commitment.
Request a One-Off Audit Quote →Offer details: The six-week period runs from the date the audit is completed. The waiver applies to the agreed standard audit fee only, where a new managed IT support agreement is signed within 42 calendar days. If the audit fee has already been paid, the treatment of that payment under the waiver will be agreed in writing. Audit scope, fee, eligibility and any excluded specialist testing are confirmed in writing before work starts. Remediation, penetration testing, third-party certification, licence costs and ongoing support are not automatically included. An audit reduces uncertainty but cannot guarantee that a business will be free from cyber incidents.
Good cyber security protects more than computers. It should reduce risk across the people, accounts, systems and services that keep your organisation operating.
Employees, accounts and access are often the first route attackers try. Strong identity controls help reduce that risk.
PCs and laptops need protection, security updates and sensible configuration to reduce exposure to known threats.
Email, Teams, OneDrive and business accounts need the right identity, access and security settings around them.
Security should help protect the systems and information your business needs to keep trading and serving customers.
The right security depends on your environment and risk, but these are some of the core areas we can help businesses improve.
Protection for supported PCs and laptops designed to detect and respond to suspicious activity beyond traditional antivirus alone.
Help improving identity, access and security controls across Microsoft 365 environments.
Keeping supported devices and software updated to reduce exposure to known vulnerabilities.
Improving MFA, administrator access, permissions and account controls to reduce the risk of compromised credentials.
Reviewing your current environment to identify obvious weaknesses, gaps and areas that need attention.
End-to-end help: a Cyber Essentials readiness audit, gap remediation, preparation of the self-assessment and guidance through submission and assessor queries.
Modern attacks do not always begin with a virus. Criminals can target user accounts, stolen passwords, unpatched devices, email and weak Microsoft 365 settings.
A stronger approach combines endpoint protection with identity security, patching, sensible access controls and regular review of the environment.
For many SMEs, Microsoft 365 contains email, documents, collaboration, user accounts and access to wider business systems.
That makes account security and configuration just as important as protecting the physical device an employee uses.
Don't know where to start with Cyber Essentials? Wesson & Co can guide your business from its first readiness audit through the technical improvements needed to meet the requirements, then help you prepare and submit the assessment.
Rather than simply giving you a checklist, our IT specialists can review your environment, explain what's preventing you from meeting the standard, and carry out the agreed technical remediation work. We then help you complete the verified self-assessment accurately and respond to assessor requests where needed.
We review your agreed IT scope against the scheme's five technical control areas, including cloud services, devices, security settings and access.
We identify areas that need attention, explain the business impact and set out practical next steps, responsibilities and any additional costs.
We can implement agreed changes to firewalls, secure configurations, updates, access permissions and malware protection, working with your current IT provider if required.
We help gather accurate information and evidence for the Cyber Essentials verified self-assessment. Your organisation checks and approves the answers.
We guide you through the submission process and help respond to clarification requests. An independent licensed assessor determines the outcome and awards certification when requirements are met.
The UK Government-backed scheme is built around five areas intended to reduce common cyber security threats. We help assess and improve each one for the systems within your agreed assessment scope.
Cyber Essentials uses a verified self-assessment reviewed by an independent assessor. Cyber Essentials Plus adds independent technical testing. We can help you prepare for either route and coordinate with an appropriate Certification Body for any required independent assessment.
Audit, remediation, preparation and submission-support fees are scoped and quoted. Certification Body charges, hardware, licences and any independent Cyber Essentials Plus testing are separate unless specifically included in your written quotation. Certification cannot be guaranteed.
You do not need to know exactly which security product you need before speaking to us.
We can review the areas that matter most to an SME, identify obvious weaknesses and help prioritise what should be improved first.
You do not need to move all of your IT support to Wesson & Co to use us for security work. We can work alongside an internal IT team or existing provider for agreed areas such as security reviews, Cyber Essentials, endpoint protection or Microsoft 365 security.
Important business accounts should not rely on a password alone.
Supported devices and applications should receive security updates.
Business devices should have appropriate modern protection in place.
Users should only have the permissions they genuinely need.
Identity, administrator and sharing settings should be reviewed.
Important business information should have suitable backup arrangements.
Employees should understand the common risks they are likely to face.
Security improvements should be practical, prioritised and manageable.
Your cyber security audit is quoted at a one-off price based on the agreed scope. Sign a new Wesson & Co IT support agreement within six weeks of your completed audit and the agreed audit fee is waived. Other ongoing security services are quoted separately.
