Indelible Data review: Cyber Essentials in 2026
A factual review of Indelible Data as a Cyber Essentials certification body - their regional volume model, pricing guidance, and where Fig Group differs on price, speed, and platform delivery.
Section 01
Indelible Data review: Cyber Essentials in 2026
Indelible Data is a UK certification body and IASME-licensed Cyber Essentials assessor with a strong volume practice. They are a reasonable choice for organisations that want a straightforward, reliable CE delivery without the MSSP or ISO-27001 bundling on top. Fig Group is broadly comparable but differentiates on published price, 6-working-hour SLA, and platform-first delivery. Any eligible cyber-liability benefit is arranged separately at scheme level by IASME and its insurance partner, not by Fig.
Section 02
Who Indelible Data is
- Reputation: UK certification body with a CE volume practice
- IASME-licensed: yes - verifiable on the IASME directory
- Scope: Cyber Essentials, CE Plus, IASME Cyber Assurance
- Model: assessor-led delivery, straightforward CE focus
For organisations that want CE without a large consultancy wrapper, Indelible Data is a sensible comparator.
Section 03
Pricing and turnaround
Indelible Data publishes some pricing on their site for straightforward CE assessments. See indelibledata.co.uk for current figures. Turnaround is typically business-week measured.
Section 04
Where Indelible Data makes sense
- You want a lean, CE-focused body.
- You prefer direct assessor conversations to platform-first self-service.
Section 05
Where Fig Group positions differently
1. £299.99 + VAT published on the Micro tier - the lowest public CE price we are aware of in the UK. Pricing.
2. 6-working-hour SLA on clean Micro-tier submissions.
3. Insurer-grade evidence exports for customer-controlled sharing.
4. Platform + AI-augmented delivery for self-serve readiness.
5. Verifiable IASME licence: check the public record on the IASME directory.
Section 06
The certificate is identical
Indelible Data-issued and Fig-issued CE certificates are equivalent - same scheme, same 12-month validity, same directory listing.
Section 07
When to consider Fig
- You want the lowest published UK price
- You want a faster SLA
- You want insurer-grade compliance evidence you control
- You prefer self-service online readiness checks
Section 08
Bottom line
Indelible Data is a credible, straightforward CE body. Fig Group offers a similarly focused certificate proposition with a lower published price, faster SLA, and insurer-grade evidence exports. Any eligible cyber-liability benefit is arranged separately by IASME and its insurance partner, not by Fig.
