We’re proud to share that Rareloop has achieved Cyber Essentials Plus certification, an independently verified government-backed standard that recognises organisations with robust cyber security controls in place.
As an experienced technology company, we have always placed a high value on digital security. The Cyber Essentials Plus process has enabled us to further strengthen our setup, align with a recognised standard and be accountable to a 3rd-party audit. From tightening how we manage device access and software updates, to refining our internal policies, the certification gave us a valuable opportunity to review, refine, and formalise the practices we already had in place.
It’s helped ensure that the way we approach security isn’t just effective, it’s consistent, measurable, and independently verified.
Why security matters
When you’re creating bespoke software, websites, apps or managing complex web systems, security isn’t a ‘nice to have’. It’s the foundation everything else rests on.
Our clients trust us with their data, their customers, and often, their reputation. That’s a responsibility we take seriously, and why were always designed our processes, infrastructure and code with security front and centre.
What Cyber Essentials Plus involves
Cyber Essentials Plus is an independently verified certification that tests how well an organisation protects itself from common cyber threats. To achieve it, our systems and controls were rigorously assessed and audited across five key areas:
- Firewalls and internet gateways
- Secure configuration
- User access control
- Malware protection
- Patch management
It’s proof that our internal processes and the way we manage client systems meets the highest recognised standard for cyber security in the UK.
Demonstrating best practice
Achieving Cyber Essential Plus builds on what’s already at the heart of how we work, following best practice, doing things properly, and earning trust through transparency.
“Our clients come to us because they need something built to last, something they can rely on. Security is a big part of that reliability. Cyber Essentials Plus is a way for us to evidence, not just claim, that we take that responsibility seriously.” – Joe Lambert, Founder of Rareloop
Looking ahead
Cyber security isn’t a one-off achievement; it’s an ongoing commitment. As we continue to design and build digital products, we’ll keep reviewing and improving how we protect the data and systems entrusted to us.
