Head Medical is pleased to confirm the successful renewal of both Cyber Essentials and Cyber Essentials Plus accreditation.
As a healthcare recruitment business working with health professionals and healthcare organisations across the world, we handle significant volumes of personal and professional data. Maintaining strong cyber security controls is therefore a core responsibility and an essential part of the trust placed in us by our candidates and clients.
Cyber Essentials confirms that baseline technical controls are in place to protect against common cyber threats. Cyber Essentials Plus goes a step further, requiring independent technical testing by an accredited assessor to verify that these controls are operating effectively in real-world conditions.
Successfully renewing both certifications provides independent assurance that the systems and processes we use across the Taranata Group continue to meet recognised security standards.
This renewal reflects our ongoing commitment to protecting the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the data entrusted to us by health professionals, healthcare employers, and partners. Our approach to cyber security focuses on continual review and improvement, supported by ongoing investment in people, processes, and technology.
Cyber security expectations continue to evolve, driven by regulatory requirements, client assurance needs, and the increasing sophistication of cyber threats. Maintaining recognised accreditations such as Cyber Essentials and Cyber Essentials Plus helps ensure we remain aligned with these expectations and accountable for the controls we have in place.
As the Cyber Essentials scheme continues to strengthen its technical assurance requirements, our zero-fault renewal provides further confidence in our security baseline and supports our longer-term roadmap towards ISO/IEC 27001:2022 and other recognised information security standards.
