This pledge requires organizations to make cybersecurity a board-level responsibility, implement Cyber Essentials across their supply chains, and report progress annually. The pledge aims to enhance cybersecurity measures among organizations of all sizes, particularly those in the supply chain. Osirisit, an IASME-accredited Certification Body, will also require its certified organizations to meet the Cyber Essentials standard.
