AlphaBiolabs achieves Cyber Essentials Plus certification

We are proud to announce that AlphaBiolabs has been awarded Cyber Essentials Plus certification, following a rigorous assessment of our cyber security systems.

This government-backed certification highlights our dedication to maintaining the highest standards of cyber security, providing further reassurance to our customers that their personal data is in safe hands.

What is Cyber Essentials Plus?

Cyber Essentials Plus is a certification awarded under the UK’s Cyber Essentials scheme: a programme developed by the National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC) and the UK government.

It provides organisations with a clear framework to strengthen their cyber security and protect against common cyber threats.

It also goes beyond the basic Cyber Essentials certification, requiring hands-on technical verification to ensure that the security measures an organisation claims to have are thoroughly tested, and confirmed by an external assessor.

What our certification means for you

At AlphaBiolabs, the safety and security of our customers’ personal information is a top priority.

In today’s digital landscape, where cyber threats are becoming more complex, any reputable testing laboratory should have the right systems in place to safeguard information including DNA, drug, alcohol and health test results and customers’ personal data.

Our Cyber Essentials Plus certification provides an additional layer of assurance that our data security measures are not only robust but have been independently verified.

With Cyber Essentials Plus, you can be assured that we:

• Protect against data breaches: Cyber Essentials Plus certification strengthens our defences against common cyber threats, helping prevent potential data breaches.
• Ensure business continuity: A secure framework protects our systems, allowing us to provide consistent, reliable service without disruption caused by cyber incidents.
• Safeguard customer privacy: From sample collection to reporting, we are committed to the confidentiality of all customer information, with protocols in place to maintain privacy at every step.
