NCA Essential Cybersecurity Controls (ECC) Compliance Consulting
Riyadh-based NCA ECC gap assessment, remediation roadmap, and audit-readiness support for Saudi organisations - practical, local, and business-focused.
What is NCA ECC - and who needs it?
The Essential Cybersecurity Controls (ECC) are Saudi Arabia's baseline cybersecurity requirements issued by the National Cybersecurity Authority (NCA). They set expectations for how organisations govern cybersecurity, protect systems, respond to incidents, and manage third parties and cloud use.
Typically relevant for
- Government and government-affiliated organisations
- Critical national infrastructure and essential services
- Regulated private-sector organisations and sensitive suppliers
- Entities that must prove cybersecurity maturity for contracts and tenders
How CyberInTech helps with NCA ECC
We combine technical cybersecurity work with practical compliance support - without turning compliance into a paperwork-only exercise.
ECC readiness & gap assessment
Map policies, controls, and evidence against applicable ECC domains into a clear gap register.
Cybersecurity risk assessment
Prioritise gaps by business and regulatory risk so spend reduces real exposure.
Policies, controls & documentation
Build or tighten artefacts assessors expect - aligned to how your team actually operates.
Technical implementation support
Access, logging, endpoint, network, and monitoring fixes alongside your IT team.
Remediation roadmap
Phased plan with owners and sequencing, plus optional follow-on support.

FAQ
Do you replace our internal team?
No. We work with your team - assess, plan, and help close gaps. You keep ownership.
Early-stage documentation?
Yes. We build the minimum credible set first, then deepen.
PDPL or ISO 27001 too?
We can align ECC work with overlapping requirements where useful - clarify on discovery.
NCA license status?
We confirm our current NCA registration status for the specific services you need on discovery. We do not claim licenses or registrations we do not hold.
