YGIA Polyclinic’s Reaccreditation with the Cyber Essentials Plus for a sixth consecutive year

We are pleased to announce our re-accreditation, for the sixth consecutive year, by UK’s National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC) with Cyber Essentials Plus standards.

During the second phase of the audit, which lasted three weeks and was completed on the 15th of June 2022, the whole Hospital’s IT networks, systems and infrastructure were tested against the latest Cybersecurity standards and requirements. The Cyber Essentials PLUS required a long process of a much more complicated and advanced assessment of the IT security controls and measures in place, which involved an internal and external vulnerability scans and penetration attacks, to test Ygia Polyclinic’s security defences’ resilience against sophisticated cyber-attacks.

Our continuous compliance is a demonstration to the Hospital’s patients, Associated Doctors, suppliers, and other interested parties alike, that we take cyber security and information compliance seriously.
