We’re proud to announce that Goaco has successfully renewed its Cyber Essentials Plus certification in July 2025. This achievement marks another milestone in our ongoing commitment to maintaining the highest standards of cybersecurity across our operations.
Cyber Essentials Plus is a UK government-backed scheme designed to help organisations protect themselves against the most common cyber threats. Unlike the basic Cyber Essentials certification, Cyber Essentials Plus involves rigorous, hands-on technical verification by independent auditors. It ensures that critical security controls such as firewalls, secure configurations, access controls, and malware protection are not only in place but are actively working to defend against real-world threats.
For Goaco, this certification is more than a badge. It’s a reflection of our dedication to safeguarding our clients, partners, and stakeholders. In an era where cyber threats are increasingly sophisticated, having independently verified defences provides assurance that we take security seriously. It also strengthens our position when working with public sector bodies, defence organisations, and regulated industries where compliance is non-negotiable.
Our customers and partners benefit directly from this renewal. It means their data is handled with robust, tested security measures. It offers peace of mind knowing that Goaco meets stringent benchmarks aligned with government and industry procurement requirements. In short, it’s a signal of trust and reliability.
The renewal process involved a comprehensive audit by certified assessors. Our systems underwent vulnerability scans, configuration reviews, and assessments of access controls and malware defences. We’re pleased to report that Goaco passed all criteria with no major findings. An outcome that speaks to the strength of our security posture.
For Goaco, cybersecurity isn’t a one-time effort, it’s a culture. We invest in regular staff training, continuous system reviews, and technology upgrades to stay ahead of emerging threats. Cyber Essentials Plus is part of a broader compliance framework that includes our ISO 27001 accreditation and adherence to industry best practices.
