About this session

Cyber Essentials hasn't been rebuilt from scratch in 2026, but recent updates have tightened controls, clarified how cloud services are treated and made pass/fail requirements stricter. This free session from The One Point, run with the North East Cyber Resilience Centre and West Yorkshire Police, explains what's changed and what to prepare for.

It covers the 2026 Cyber Essentials changes, the common compliance gaps that can cost you certification, a policing view of current cybercrime and practical changes you can make, upcoming changes to be aware of, and a straightforward checklist to take away, with a live Q&A.

The mix of a certified Cyber Essentials assessor and a former police cyber crime lead makes it more grounded than a typical vendor session.

Who it’s for

Small and mid-sized organisations preparing for Cyber Essentials for the first time or renewing an existing certificate, and the IT leads handling it.
