CSA Cybersecurity Certification: Cyber Essentials Mark

The Cyber Essentials (2025) certification is a cybersecurity certification scheme developed by the Cyber Security Agency (CSA) of Singapore. It provides a framework for organisations to enhance their cybersecurity posture, covering areas like classical cybersecurity, cloud security, OT security, and AI security.

Overview

Cyber Essentials (2025) offers a structured approach to improving cybersecurity for organisations in Singapore. It includes specific sub-schemes for ICT vendors, Health Information Act (HIA) entities, and Health Information Management System vendors. The certification is valid for two years and involves a self-assessment verified by certification bodies. SMEs and NPOs can access funding support to offset certification costs. Certified organisations can improve their reputation globally and benefit from discounted cyber insurance and scholarship opportunities. Updated tools and templates were last revised in April 2026 to assist in achieving certification.
