Proactive includes the controls and documentation needed for Cyber Essentials and similar certifications. It also aligns your business with what most cyber insurers now expect, making it easier to get covered and potentially lowering your premiums.

Proactive supports these requirements by improving:

• Device security and patching
• Password and identity controls
• Email filtering and anti-phishing protection
• Microsoft 365 policy enforcement
• Monitoring and alerting
• Backup resilience
  

Insurers increasingly reject claims or increase premiums when businesses rely solely on basic antivirus and outdated security setups. By moving to Proactive, your organisation meets far more of the controls that insurers, auditors, and assessors look for.

This makes certification easier — and reduces the financial and operational risks posed by modern cyber threats.
