Strengthen Your Cybersecurity Posture and Build Digital Trust
In today’s digital landscape, cybersecurity is no longer optional — it’s a business essential. As part of the Cyber Security Agency of Singapore (CSA)’s national cybersecurity certification scheme, the Cyber Essentials Mark (CEM) and Cyber Trust Mark (CTM) help organizations demonstrate their commitment to protecting systems, data, and stakeholders against evolving cyber threats.
What is the Cyber Essentials Mark (CEM)?
The Cyber Essentials Mark (CEM) recognizes organizations that have implemented basic cybersecurity measures to protect systems and data. It is ideal for SMEs or organizations starting to formalize their cybersecurity practices and helps them identify key control areas to focus on implementing to start out their cybersecurity journey.
What is the Cyber Trust Mark (CTM)?
The Cyber Trust Mark (CTM) is a more robust and comprehensive edition of the CEM for organizations with mature and strong cybersecurity controls, aligned with best practices and international standards. It suits larger or digitally mature organizations seeking strong governance and risk management.
