Your CREST CAMP journey

Your organisation will begin its journey by joining our Accreditation Pathway – a structured framework designed to help you progress toward meeting globally recognised standards.

The first step involves completing the Pathway Onboarding form, followed by conducting a self-assessment to evaluate your organisation’s current capabilities and maturity level. This will provide you with a detailed gap analysis report, offering clear insights into areas for improvement and actionable next steps.

Based on the findings, we may pair your organisation with a mentor from our global network of over 420 accredited members. Your mentor will provide expert guidance to help you address gaps, refine methodologies, and build internal capacity.

CREST CAMP offers multiple advantages to countries, organisations, and professionals seeking to enhance their cyber security capabilities. Key benefits include:

1. Boosting local cyber skills: CREST CAMP directly boosts local cyber service providers by aligning them with global cyber security standards, enhancing their expertise and enabling them to offer high-quality services.
2. Global collaboration: the programme fosters strong ties between governments, private-sector organisations, and training providers, facilitating the exchange of knowledge, resources, and best practices to strengthen national cyber security frameworks.
3. Mentorship and expertise: connecting service providers with experienced mentors from a global network of over 420 CREST-accredited Members, this enables participants to attain actionable guidance to bridge capability gaps.
4. Sustainable cyber security: with a focus on long-term growth and sustainability, the programme ensures local ecosystems can continually develop and evolve, rather than offering short-term, one-off solutions.
5. International recognition: cyber service providers participating in CREST CAMP benefit from aligning with internationally recognised CREST standards, increasing credibility and marketability in the global cyber security space.
