Demystifying PCI-DSS: A simple guide to payment security compliance
April 25, 2025Accreditation marks Economit’s leadership in delivering cyber security consultancy aligned with Stellastra’s global ranking platform
Economit, a leading independent IT and cyber security consultancy, is proud to announce that it has been awarded the Stellastra Platinum Cyber Security accreditation for 2025, recognising its outstanding commitment to core cyber security principles and practices. The company has also entered a partnership with Stellastra. As a Platinum accredited cyber security partner, Economit now offers specialist consultancy to help organisations improve their DNS hygiene, enhance their Stellastra risk score, and achieve either Bronze, Silver, Gold, or Platinum recognition on Stellastra's global cyber security ranking platform.
"Our Platinum status with Stellastra validates our attention to detail in an often-overlooked aspect of cyber hygiene," said Mike Donoghue, Economit's Managing Director and Principal Consultant. "We take great satisfaction in guiding organisations through the process of strengthening their postures and achieving industry-recognised security benchmarks such as the Stellastra accreditation."
Stellastra has made its cyber security scoring engine accessible to the public, allowing individuals and organisations to obtain a complimentary cyber security risk assessment. Stellastra's cyber security risk scoring utilises a passive and non-intrusive engine that relies on external data to analyse public cybersecurity metrics and assess risk across various areas, including email, domain, web, and brand security. This quantifiable metric can be used for benchmarking and improvement. Organisations can use their Stellastra risk score to identify weaknesses in their DNS configuration and improve their risk score.
Jacob Duane, CompTIA CySA+, Security+, and Cyber Security Analytics Professional at Stellastra, added, "Economit's commitment to strong cyber security, anti-phishing, and anti-spoofing controls across their infrastructure highlights their integrity and has earned them the Stellastra Cyber Security Platinum badge for 2025, expanding on their ISO 27001, ISO 27701, and ISO 9001 capabilities. Their expertise in DNS configuration and cyber hygiene aligns perfectly with Stellastra's mission to deliver transparent and accessible cyber risk evaluation."
Organisations seeking to improve their Stellastra ranking or aiming to achieve a desired Stellastra award level can benefit from Economit's consultancy services, which help implement and maintain the DNS controls and hygiene necessary for operating to a high level in cyber security. Economit's DNS consultancy provides the expertise needed to achieve and maintain strong DNS security, which in turn supports better risk scores and recognition on the Stellastra platform. Good DNS hygiene also demonstrates a commitment to security best practices.
DNS configuration is foundational to a strong cyber security posture and is explicitly recognised in platforms like Stellastra, although the award is based on adherence to a broad range of cyber security best practices Stellastra's evaluation criteria include protocols and standards such as SPF, DMARC, MTA-STS, and DNSSEC, all of which rely on a careful implementation of correct DNS configuration settings and maintenance.
