Discover how Millgate delivers complete solutions for our clients, helping them succeed
After launching in 2016, the Observatory for Sport in Scotland (OSS) completed multiple successful research projects exploring the relationship between sport and community. Because many children reduce their sport activities at secondary school age, the projects carried out by OSS into community sport are integral to shaping government policy and helping to encourage the continued uptake of exercise.
As OSS’s role and influence has grown, so too has the number of projects they are carrying out: from 3 in 2019 to over 20 currently. As a result, they are processing 10x as much data, often from confidential sources. Therefore, the team at OSS wanted to ensure their data handling practices were secure, compliant and scalable.
Following a recommendation from an IT manager associate, OSS reached out to Millgate for support getting Cyber Essentials certified. The government-approved accreditation asks organisations to analyse and improve their security postures, addressing gaps they may not be aware of. As cybersecurity is an expansive and evolving area, Millgate was able to guide OSS throughout the certification process, making it easier to follow and to focus on key areas.
The certification process covered both in-office and remote working, so that OSS’s team could have confidence in the security of their data handling practices wherever they were working.
We certainly wouldn’t have completed the certification so quickly without Millgate’s help and guidance.
