Let’s set one thing straight from the offset and that is that Skype for Business Server on-premises is not affected by this milestone and we’ll go on to clarify that point here.

Certification is proof that we take our values seriously. Cybersecurity is such a huge issue today with companies routinely in the news relating to data breaches, ransomware attacks, and more. Being Cyber Essentials certified is by no means a golden ticket or a way to eradicate the threat of cyber attack but for us, it’s a step to showing customers that we take what we do seriously.
For Arcible to become Cyber Essentials certified, we didn’t just throw some security controls on top of what we do. Security always has and always will be part of what we do from the ground up. Our Arcible Vision service is a key example of this using secure management processes to help you manage your Microsoft Azure estates or the work we do with customers implementing Microsoft 365 security features such as Microsoft Defender, Cloud App Security, and more.
If you’re interested in finding out more about how Arcible can help your business be more secure while staying productive, contact us for more information.
If you’re interested in your business becoming Cyber Essentials certified and need assistance to get your technical controls in place to meet the programme requirements, our Arcible Assist service could benefit you with ad-hoc support and assistance.
Paying for certificates isn’t the done thing when you can get free certificates from Lets Encrypt. Free certificates from Lets Encrypt come at a different price and that is lifetime as the certificates are only ever valid for 90 days. If you’re still manually buying and installing certificates annually then you don’t want that four times a year so we automate the process end-to-end. This has been working perfectly since about 2018 for us, however, a recent alert about a certificate expiring made us sit up and look at this case of Azure App Service Lets Encrypt renewal failures and the resolution.

A less common requirement is the ability to do one to one call recording in Microsoft Teams. Until now, the ability to perform the recording of one-on-one calls was governed by the same Meeting Policy as the ability to record multi-participant calls, however, this is changing and breaking out to a new, separate setting.

Although the focus here is a small, simple, and static website, you can apply the same logic to larger sites or even if you need a way to serve up static content over HTTP, not just a website.
