The BVRLA has obtained the Government’s Cyber Essentials Plus accreditation following an independent assessment of the association’s IT security infrastructure and processes.
Awarded by the National Cyber Security Centre’s partner IASME, the accreditation demonstrates that the BVRLA meets the standards of IT security required to help protect against cyber-attacks. A threat that has become increasingly prevalent as digital working increases and criminals exploit the Covid crisis to unscrupulously target individuals and businesses.
