Assessment basis
Understand the assessment and its limits
Assessment basis
Automated, name-minimised preparation review aligned to NCSC Cyber Essentials Requirements for IT Infrastructure v3.3 (effective 27 April 2026). RightCyber-authored questions; not the official questionnaire, an assessment, a certification decision, or a Cyber Essentials Plus technical audit.
How to interpret the indicator
This internal percentage averages the 0–5 implementation value for every applicable original core check, divides the result by 5, converts it to a percentage and rounds to the nearest whole percent. Each applicable original core check is weighted equally; permitted N/A responses and paid follow-up questions are excluded, while Not sure and unanswered checks are conservatively treated as 0. It is not the Cyber Essentials marking method, a pass probability or a certification decision; an unresolved automatic-fail requirement or inaccurate scope can prevent certification regardless of the total.
