Yotra Ltd awarded prestigious Cyber Essentials and Cyber Essentials Plus Accreditations
Yotra Ltd is pleased to say that it has been awarded the Cyber Essentials and Cyber Essentials Plus accreditations. This significant achievement provides independent assurance of the security standards which we have in place to provide our customers with peace of mind that we are protecting our data and systems against cyber threats.
Cyber Essentials Plus is a government-backed, industry-supported scheme that helps organisations demonstrate controls against common cyber threats and ensure that their IT systems are secure. Yotra Ltd achieved this certification working with Melius Cyber, cyber security experts. Their comprehensive platform CyberSafe supported Yotra to become Cyber Essentials Plus certified. Running a Cyber Essentials Plus vulnerability scan every day rather than the traditional once a year, ensures that we are aware of any potential vulnerabilities in our IT systems as and when they appear.
Alistair Smith, Yotra CEO states “We are always mindful of our responsibility to ensure the protection of any data entrusted to us by our clients. Yotra offers a digital solution so we recognise the importance of cyber security in today's ever increasing reliance on technology. Achieving this certification involved a rigorous assessment process. The Melius Cyber team complimented our own team’s efforts, allowing us to succeed in obtaining Cyber Essentials Plus accreditation quickly and efficiently.”
David Warren, Sales Director at Melius Cyber added "Yotra's commitment to safeguarding public data is commendable. More organisations should follow suit, implementing round-the-clock cyber monitoring - eliminating vulnerabilities, not just spotting them periodically.”
This certification reinforces our position as a trusted partner for our members who are seeking reliable and secure digital solutions.
Yotra’s Cyber Essentials Plus certificate is valid for one year until 7th June 2025 and requires an annual inspection to ensure we maintain our compliance with the recommendations.
