CE+ (Cyber Essentials Plus)¶

Understanding CE+ compliance requirements¶

Cyber Essentials Plus (CE+) is a United Kingdom government supported framework that helps protect organizations, regardless of size, against a wide range of the most common cyber attacks. CE+ certification is required for organizations that plan to bid for central government contracts which involve handling sensitive and personal information or the provision of certain technical products and services. CE+ certification is supported by industry, including the Federation of Small Businesses, the Confederation of British Industry and a number of insurance organizations that offer incentives for CSPs holding this certification. CE+ provides the necessary technical controls and a related assurance framework conducted via an annual external assessment conducted by an accredited assessor.

Achievement of the CE+ certification demonstrates Snowflake’s commitment to mitigate the risk from common Internet-based threats and cyber security best practices.
