The Cyber Essentials and Cyber Trust Mark frameworks are Singapore’s national benchmarks for cybersecurity readiness.
For many SMEs, meeting these standards can feel overwhelming — policies may exist, but evidence is scattered, configurations unclear, and staff training inconsistent.
Our readiness programme simplifies the journey, giving you the tools, templates, and assurance needed to meet CSA’s requirements and earn your certification confidently.
Clause-by-clause readiness mapping against CE or CTM requirements
Implementation plan with prioritised actions and timelines
Policy and procedure templates aligned with CSA guidance
Technical hygiene checklist (patching, MFA, endpoint security, backups)
Staff awareness briefing for cyber hygiene and phishing resilience
Mock audit review and corrective action plan
Optional: Onsite walkthrough or auditor Q&A coaching
