Bristol, UK – 23 February 2026 – Logiq, a rapidly growing UK cyber security consultancy and secure solutions specialist has been recognised as an Assured Service Provider under the UK Cyber Advisor scheme, enabling the organisation to deliver cyber security advice formally aligned to National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC) standards.
The Cyber Advisor scheme was developed by the NCSC in partnership with IASME to provide small and medium-sized organisations with access to trusted, quality-assured guidance. The scheme establishes a recognised benchmark for providers delivering practical support focused specifically on the implementation of the Cyber Essentials technical controls.
IASME administers the scheme on behalf of the NCSC, accrediting both organisations and individual advisors against defined technical and professional criteria. To achieve this status, Logiq’s advisors have demonstrated the ability to provide clear, actionable advice to help organisations protect their systems against the most common forms of internet-based attack addressed by Cyber Essentials.
As an Assured Service Provider, Logiq has demonstrated the governance, competence and delivery processes required to provide structured advice under the scheme. This recognition builds on Logiq’s existing NCSC-assured capabilities and its ISO/IEC 27001-certified information security management system alongside its ISO 9001-certified quality management framework, reflecting the organisation’s established approach to controlled, evidence-based service delivery.
For many organisations, particularly those facing supply chain requirements or preparing for Cyber Essentials certification, access to recognised and independent advice reduces uncertainty. It provides clarity on current posture, practical improvement steps and confidence that recommendations are grounded in national guidance rather than informal opinion.
Matthew Mackay, Logiq Security Practice Lead, commented: “Although organisations know cyber security is vital, achieving a secure baseline can appear complex and difficult to approach. Through the Cyber Advisor scheme, we offer a recognised and methodical way to enhance security posture. Our mission is to move organisations from uncertainty to a measurable state of resilience by delivering straightforward, actionable steps that help them defend their most important assets and ensure continuity of operations.”
Evie Hampton, Senior Security Consultant at Logiq and Cyber Advisor, added: “The strength of the scheme is its clarity. It focuses on framing security in the needs of the organisation allowing us to put security into context and help you to define your security requirements. Our role is to translate those requirements into clear, proportionate steps that organisations can implement with confidence.”
While Logiq’s core work supports defence, government, CNI and other highly regulated sectors, the Cyber Advisor scheme enables the organisation to extend its expertise to the wider business community. By providing NCSC-aligned advice, Logiq helps organisations strengthen their security foundations in a way that is proportionate, practical and effective.
As part of its commitment to helping organisations strengthen their cyber resilience, Logiq is pleased to offer a complimentary 30-minute consultation for organisations seeking to enhance their security posture. This no-obligation session enables organisations to discuss their current challenges, gain clarity on practical next steps, and understand how Logiq can support meaningful and measurable improvements in security.
