What both editions keep together

Keep the preparation record together

The Workspace is designed to reduce the fragmentation created when questions, context, gaps and actions are spread across unrelated notes, folders and spreadsheets.

  1. 01

    Questions in one place

    Work through Cyber Essentials questions in a structured desktop workspace.

  2. 02

    Context beside the work

    Keep supporting notes and evidence context close to the relevant question.

  3. 03

    Gaps and actions made visible

    Record the work that still needs attention instead of reconstructing it from loose files.

  4. 04

    A preparation record to retain

    Keep an organised record of the preparation context you may need to revisit at renewal.

Real product proof

See the current Consultant Starter interface

This is a genuine Consultant Starter capture using a fictional demo organisation. It comes from the Consultant build; the overview above comes from the In-house build, and each capture is labelled with the build it came from.

Keep question work and supporting context close together

The capture shows question navigation and the visible entry points for a file, note or action. The example statuses belong to fictional demo data; they do not predict a certification result or imply assessor acceptance.

Clear boundaries

Preparation software—not the certification decision

Official process

The official process is separate

RightCyber does not award Cyber Essentials certification and does not guarantee an assessment result. Both editions help you prepare for Cyber Essentials Plus; the test itself is carried out by a certification body's assessor, who chooses the sample and decides the outcome. The official assessment is purchased and completed separately.

Edition detail

Check the edition-specific model

The preparation work in the desktop app is the same in both editions. Access, pricing, licence allowances and verified data-handling details differ; Consultant plan allowances apply only to Consultant. Read the relevant edition page before deciding, and do not assume a universal storage, account or delivery model.

Workspace FAQ

Choose with the important boundaries understood

Which Workspace edition should I choose?

Choose In-house when one organisation is preparing its own Cyber Essentials work. Choose Consultant when an MSP, IT consultancy or Cyber Advisor supports separate client organisations.

Are In-house and Consultant one bundled purchase?

No. They are two editions within the Cyber Essentials Workspace family, with separate audiences, pricing and availability. The preparation work in the desktop app is the same in both; Consultant adds separate client workspaces and the control for moving between them. Choose the edition page that matches your situation.

Does the Workspace replace the official assessment portal?

No. The Workspace helps organise preparation. It does not connect to the official portal or submit answers automatically. Registration, payment, submission and the certification decision remain within the official assessment process and are separate from RightCyber.

Is the official Cyber Essentials assessment fee included?

No. Workspace pricing covers the relevant RightCyber preparation edition. The official assessment is purchased separately.

Does using the Workspace guarantee certification?

No. RightCyber does not award Cyber Essentials certification and does not guarantee an assessment result. Both editions help you prepare for Cyber Essentials Plus; the test itself is carried out by a certification body’s assessor, who chooses the sample and decides the outcome.

Where is Workspace information stored?

The Consultant edition keeps client work in separate local workspaces, while RightCyber holds the limited account, licence, device and client-registry details needed to provide access and enforce allowances. Check the relevant edition page for its verified data and delivery boundaries rather than assuming one universal model.

What do the screenshots show?

Both are genuine captures from the shipping desktop app using a fictional demo organisation. The overview comes from the In-house build and the question workspace from Consultant Starter, and each is labelled with the build it came from. They show the interface, not evidence of a certification outcome.
