This was first run as webinar on 5 Oct with Ross Brown SWCRC talking to Neil Furminger the Cyber Essentials (CE) manager from IASME. By popular request this is being put out as a podcast for all those who missed it the first time around and for those of you who asked to share it with others. 
This episode is just the start of your journey explaining all about CE and how you can achieve it, the free tools available to help you and what resources you look to for support.
