About Neurogen

Neurogen Medical is a UK-based supplier of cutting-edge neurodiagnostic and therapeutic equipment. As the exclusive distributor of Deymed Diagnostic clinical devices in the UK and Ireland, they are trusted by healthcare providers to deliver reliable, high-performance technology backed by expert technical support.

The Challenge

To expand its work within the NHS and broader healthcare sector, Neurogen needed to achieve NHS Data Security and Protection Toolkit (DSPT) certification - and fast.

This required a foundation of Cyber Essentials Plus, but for Neurogen, it wasn’t just about ticking boxes. They wanted real-world cyber resilience, backed by daily protection, to safeguard internal systems and sensitive healthcare data.

With tight timelines and high stakes, they needed a partner that could move quickly, communicate clearly, and deliver lasting cybersecurity improvements.

Our Solution

GoDefend worked in close collaboration with Neurogen to streamline and accelerate the Cyber Essentials Plus process, aligning all technical and procedural controls needed to meet certification.

To support long-term risk reduction and simplify compliance management, Neurogen also implemented the GoDefend platform - delivering continuous vulnerability scanning, daily risk visibility, and real-time remediation guidance across their infrastructure.

This proactive approach ensured they could maintain compliance not only with Cyber Essentials Plus, but also with the more rigorous NHS DSPT standards.

Results

  • Achieved Cyber Essentials Plus certification rapidly, unlocking DSPT readiness.
  • Successfully secured NHS DSPT certification, opening new healthcare sector opportunities.
  • Implemented the GoDefend platform for 24/7 monitoring and automated vulnerability tracking.
  • Improved visibility of risk across systems, reducing exposure and strengthening overall security posture.
  • Future-proofed compliance, enabling scalable security as the company grows.

“GoDefend’s support was crucial in achieving both Cyber Essentials Plus and DSPT certifications, ensuring our readiness to meet NHS standards. Through effective communication and regular meetings, they ensured timely compliance. With the GoDefend platform, we’re equipped to maintain our cyber resilience as we expand.”
