Sims Williams awarded certificate for cyber security

Back to news

With new ‘data breaches’ seemingly a daily news story, we are delighted to announce that we have again been awarded our Cyber Essentials Certificate by our IT Support Advisors, LMS.

Cyber Essentials is a United Kingdom certification scheme designed to show businesses such as ours have a suitable level of protection in cyber security through annual assessments and security checks.

Backed by the UK government and overseen by the National Cyber Security Centre. It encourages businesses to adopt good practice in information security. Cyber Essentials also includes an assurance framework and a simple set of security controls to protect information from threats coming from the internet.

Richard Moores, owner of the business says ‘At Sims Williams we take Cyber Security extremely seriously, particularly as we hold a tremendous amount of necessary personal information for buyers, sellers, landlords and tenants’.

He goes on to say, ‘with the support and guidance of LMS, who have been advising us on IT Security since 2010, we continue to monitor and improve all aspects of our Cyber Security which is a particularly hot topic just now’.

It’s just one of the ways Sims Williams are improving their service, and are again leading the way in an ever-changing environment.

What our clients say

Helpful & efficient!

SW estate agent in Arundel have been excellent throughout the protracted period of my house purchase. They were kind and helpful and responded to queries very quickly and efficiently .They even offered support once completion had taken place which I suspect is above and beyond what might be expected. I would not hesitate to recommend them and am very grateful for both their friendliness and professionalism.

OUTSTANDING CUSTOMER SERVICE

I have recently purchased a property in Walberton and I have been incredibly impressed by the outstanding support provided by the Walberton team. They really do go above and beyond and provide a very personal service to their customers. It was a very difficult chain with many challenges along the way but Lin in particular was outstanding. She was always very professional and friendly and was clearly determined to ensure that the sale progressed. She always responded to my many phone calls or emails and provided reassurance. I know that if we ever sell again!! I would use Sims Williams.

We have nothing but superlatives to say about the professional service we received from John Richards-Wyatt and his team from start to finish. We were always kept in the loop for viewings and feedback from those viewings.
