## Guide to Saudi NCA Essential Cybersecurity Controls Standard Compliance

### Protect your business & mitigate risks

Cybersecurity is a multifaceted challenge and must be a part of an organization’s risk management strategy to protect businesses from hacks and threats.

The National Cybersecurity Authority (NCA) of Saudi Arabia has developed the Essential Cybersecurity Controls (ECC – 1: 2018) to meet the cybersecurity needs of organizations and sectors in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.  

The NCA strongly recommends organizations in Saudi Arabia to leverage these controls and implement best practices to improve and enhance their cybersecurity.

This guide is an Aujas perspective on the considerations while implementing the  
NCA ECC – 1: 2018 compliance.
