Another First - CYBER SECURITY

I am proud to say that Social Care Alba is the first Care Company to achieve both IASME and Cyber Essentials accreditation.

IASME Standard

Social Care Alba is the first Care Company to achieve IASME Accreditation.  The IASME standard, based on international best practice, is risk-based and includes aspects such as physical security, staff awareness, and data backup. The IASME standard was recently recognised as the best cyber security standard for small companies by the UK Government when in consultation with trade associations and industry groups. The audited IASME certification is also seen as showing compliance to ISO27001 by an increasing number of companies.    

Cyber Essentials Scheme 

Social Care Alba is the first Care Company to achieve Cyber Essentials Accreditation. The Scheme focuses on the five most important technical security controls. These controls were identified by the government as those that, if they had been in place, would have stopped the majority of the successful cyber attacks over the last few years.

Together we are raising the standards of care.
