Get Cyber Essentials Plus Certified By Protecting Your Administrator and Privileged Accounts With MFA

Cyber security is a vital aspect of any organization’s operations, especially in the digital age. Cyber attacks can cause serious damage to your data, systems, reputation, and finances. That’s why it’s important to have a robust and reliable cybersecurity strategy to protect your admin and privileged accounts from cyber threats.

One of the best ways to improve your cybersecurity and demonstrate your commitment to it is to get certified by Cyber Essentials Plus, a UK government-backed scheme.

One of the main benefits of getting certified by Cyber Essentials Plus is that it can help you win more business opportunities. This is because many government contracts and customers require or prefer organizations that have this certification. Another benefit is that it can help you reduce the risk of cyberattacks and data breaches, which can seriously affect your organization.

However, getting certified by Cyber Essentials Plus is not an easy task. It requires you to meet some stringent requirements for multi-factor authentication (MFA). MFA is a method of verifying a user’s identity by using two or more factors, such as a password, a device, a token, or a biometric.

In this article, we will focus on one of the most critical aspects of MFA: securing your administrator and privileged accounts with Rublon MFA.

Why You Need to Secure Your Administrator and Privileged Accounts

Admin and privileged accounts are accounts that have elevated permissions and access to sensitive data and systems in your organization. They include accounts that can:

  • create, modify, or delete other accounts
  • install or uninstall software
  • change system settings
  • can access confidential information
  • perform backup or recovery operations

These accounts are essential for managing and maintaining your IT infrastructure. But they also pose a high risk if they fall into the wrong hands. Cybercriminals often target such admin accounts to gain access to your organization’s network and resources. Then, they can perform malicious actions such as stealing data, installing malware, deleting files, or disrupting services.

Therefore, it is crucial to secure your administrator and privileged accounts with MFA. MFA login for privileged access can prevent unauthorized access and reduce the impact of a potential breach.

Secure your administrator and privileged accounts with Rublon MFA to improve your cybersecurity posture and achieve Cyber Essentials Plus certification with ease.

Cyber Essentials Plus certification requires you to undergo technical verification by an external auditor. One of the tests will involve verifying that you have implemented MFA where available.

Rublon MFA makes this verification process simple and straightforward. It provides clear evidence that you have implemented MFA for your cloud services, your administrative accounts, and your accounts that are accessible from the internet.

Rublon MFA also provides clear evidence that you have chosen the additional factor from one of the following options: a managed/enterprise device; an app on a trusted device; a physically separate token; or a known or trusted account.

By using Rublon MFA, you can demonstrate to the auditor that you have met the requirements for MFA in Cyber Essentials Plus. Further, Rublon allows you to have a robust and reliable authentication process for admin accounts (and more!) that can prevent unauthorized access and data breaches.
