Key Outcomes
- KCG Audit were able to secure the Cyber Security credentials they needed to offer value to their clients
- Thanks to Air IT’s expertise and support they also managed to secure them within their deadline
The Challenge
Air IT had already supplied Managed Support for KCG Audit since 2018. Due to the nature of their work, they wanted to improve their cyber security posture.
KCG Audit independently assesses Higher Education institutions to analyse the functionality and success of their internal structure. This includes improving board structure, creating corporate strategies, and evaluating overall performance in line with goals that have been set.
The nature of their work means that KCG Audit is required to manage a large amount of client data. As such, cyber security is a priority for them and by choosing to partner with Air IT, they benefit from an effective, multi-layered cyber security strategy, as well as responsive, expert security advice.
With the valued support of Air IT, the security measures they’ve introduced, and now the Cyber Essentials accreditation I can sleep (a bit) easier at night!

The Approach
KCG Audit recognised the value of gaining a Cyber Essentials accreditation and knew they needed to obtain their own certification as quickly as possible to prove to their clients the robustness of their cyber security strategy.
As a Cyber Essentials Certification Body, we offer full support and certification services for both Cyber Essentials and Cyber Essentials Plus, so the team were in good hands.
The Outcome
Due to the urgency of KCG Audit’s request, our team went above and beyond to support them in gaining their accreditation as quickly as possible. In fact, they were able to obtain their own Cyber Essentials certification in just three days! Needless to say, KCG Audit were delighted with such a quick and efficient result.
GWe continue to work together to optimise KCG Audit’s cyber security and keep their Cyber Essentials certification renewed. As new threats emerge and risks increase, KCG Audit know they will need to adapt their cyber security strategy accordingly, receiving expert help and advice from us to do so.
