Cybersecurity is no longer just a claim we make. It is a commitment to our stakeholders

Going back a decade, cyber security was more buzzword than actionable steps for SMEs. Yet in 2026, 43% of SME businesses (over 600,000) reported a cyber attack1. It is high on the risk register for many business leaders and is the reason we've taken considerable steps to ensure Clipper Contracting Group remains one of the most secure companies in our space. From Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI) to protecting every log-in with 2FA, we have always given cyber security the respect it deserves. Our MD Rob Wilks shares:

"it's easy for a business to put words in their marketing material, but demonstrating a commitment takes something more. That's why I felt it was important to demonsrate our standards with Cyber Essentials accreditation"

That's why Clipper Contracting Group is proud to share that we've achieved Cyber Essentials certification. For those unfamiliar, Cyber Essentials is a UK government-backed scheme that verifies an organisation has essential technical controls in place to defend against common cyber threats. Achieving it isn't just a badge — it's independent, third-party validation of the practices we've already invested in, and a clear signal that our commitment to security is measurable.

For our workers and recruitment agency partners, this means something concrete; your data and your trust are handled with the seriousness they deserve. It means fewer risks in your supply chain, greater resilience to ensure we can make payments every week, and confidence that when we say security is a priority, we can back it up with evidence.
