The National Cybersecurity Authority’s Critical Systems Cybersecurity Controls (CSCC) extend the Essential Cybersecurity Controls for systems whose disruption would seriously affect national security, the economy or essential services. They raise the bar on governance, protection, monitoring and resilience for those systems.
We help you identify and document critical systems, assess them against CSCC, close gaps and keep evidence ready for NCA assessments, as part of a single programme with ECC.
Who it is for
- Government entities and their affiliates
- Owners and operators of critical national infrastructure
- Service providers that run or support critical systems
What you gain
- Clear identification of which systems are critical
- Stronger protection where an outage or breach would hurt most
- One programme with NCA ECC rather than two
How we get you compliant
Applicability and scoping
Confirm whether and how the law applies to you, entities, data, systems, roles and territories.
Data and process mapping
Build a record of processing or control inventory so obligations can be tied to real systems and owners.
Gap assessment
Measure current practice against each obligation and rank the gaps by legal and business risk.
Remediation roadmap
Policies, notices, contracts, technical controls and governance, sequenced so the highest risks close first.
Evidence and ongoing monitoring
A compliance calendar, metrics and periodic reviews so you can demonstrate compliance to a regulator or customer at any time.
