SK tes, a global leader in IT asset disposition (ITAD), Ewaste, and battery recycling solutions, is proud to announce that our sites in Glasgow and Birmingham have achieved the prestigious Cyber Essentials and Cyber Essentials Plus Certification respectively. This significant milestone demonstrates our unwavering commitment to maintaining the highest standards of cybersecurity, ensuring the safety and security of our customers’ data. 

The Cyber Essentials certification is a rigorous, government-backed scheme that requires organizations to implement robust cybersecurity measures. By achieving this certification, SK tes has proven its dedication to protecting sensitive information and mitigating the risk of cyber threats. This accomplishment not only enhances our operational integrity but also reassures our customers that their data is in safe hands. 

Tom Hoof, IT Director at SK tes, expressed his pride in the company’s latest achievement: “Achieving the Cyber Essentials certification is a testament to the hard work and dedication of our IT team. This certification reinforces our commitment to safeguarding our customers’ data and provides an added layer of trust and confidence in our services.”

This achievement underscores our commitment to upholding the highest standards in the industry.” 

Cyber Essentials certification complements our existing ISO27001 certification, further solidifying our commitment to providing the highest level of security.
