Exception PCB Achieves Cyber Essentials Certification

Exception PCB has achieved Cyber Essentials certification, independently confirming that our IT systems and data security controls meet the UK government-backed standard.

For customers in aerospace, defence, medical, and other regulated sectors, this matters. The boards we manufacture often support sensitive programmes, and the data that underpins them, including designs, specifications, and intellectual property, needs to be protected with the same rigour we apply to the manufacturing process itself.

Cyber Essentials certification verifies that Exception PCB has the controls in place to guard against the most common cyber threats, including malware, phishing, and unauthorised access. It is assessed independently, which means it carries more weight than an internal declaration.

WHY IT MATTERS FOR OUR CUSTOMERS

Supplier cyber security is now a standard part of qualification in many regulated supply chains. For procurement and quality teams working to tight compliance requirements, Cyber Essentials gives you documented, independently verified assurance that Exception PCB takes information security seriously.

It also reduces risk further down the chain. A cyber incident at a supplier can affect manufacturing timelines, delay deliveries, and compromise data. Certification demonstrates we have the foundations in place to prevent that.

PART OF A BROADER COMMITMENT

Cyber Essentials sits alongside our AS9100D, ISO 9001:2015, and JOSCAR accreditations as part of our wider commitment to process control, compliance, and supplier confidence. We review and renew certification annually to ensure our controls remain current.
