Cyber Essentials Checklist

A Practical Cyber Security Checklist for Small Businesses

Good cyber security doesn’t have to be complicated or expensive. It’s about putting sensible protections in place and keeping on top of the basics.

Start with your internet connection
Your network is the front door to your business systems. Using a firewall helps block unwanted access, and keeping your router and network equipment up to date ensures known security holes are patched before they can be exploited.

Keep devices and software protected
Every computer should have reliable antivirus protection installed and kept up to date. Operating systems and applications should also be regularly updated, as many security issues are fixed through routine updates that are easy to miss.

Control who can access what
Strong, unique passwords are essential, especially for email, cloud services and remote access. Where possible, adding multi-factor authentication gives an extra layer of protection, even if a password is compromised.

Protect your data properly
Sensitive business data should be encrypted, whether it’s being sent over the internet or stored on a device. Regular backups are just as important, and they should be tested occasionally to make sure data can actually be restored if needed.

Have clear policies in place
Knowing what to do if something goes wrong can make all the difference. A simple incident response plan helps everyone stay calm and act quickly. Clear policies around data protection, system access and acceptable use also reduce the risk of mistakes.

Secure your applications and online services
Only install software from trusted sources, and take time to review security settings in cloud services and business applications. Small configuration changes can often make a big difference to security.

Help your staff stay security-aware
Cyber security isn’t just an IT issue. Regular, plain-English guidance helps staff recognise suspicious emails, unsafe links and risky behaviour. Everyone should understand their role in keeping the business secure.

Review and improve over time
Security isn’t a one-off task. Regularly reviewing logs, alerts and reports can highlight issues early, and occasional security checks help ensure protections are still doing what they should.

The Importance of Well Documented IT Policies

Clear, well-documented IT policies are essential for protecting both your business and your employees. These policies set the foundation for how technology is used, managed, and protected within your organisation. From data retention to device management, having robust policies in place ensures that everyone understands their responsibilities, reducing the risk of errors or security breaches.

Documented policies help your business stay compliant with regulations, prevent data loss, and protect sensitive information. They also provide clear guidelines for employees, making it easier to follow best practices when it comes to data security, device usage, and access controls. By implementing a comprehensive set of IT policies, you’re not only safeguarding your company from cyber threats but also fostering a culture of accountability and security among your team.
