# Cyber Essentials - Further Information Required

### <mark style="color:$primary;">What do I do if my Cyber Essentials Assessment needs Further Information?</mark> <a href="#hs_cos_wrapper_kb-article-module-4" id="hs_cos_wrapper_kb-article-module-4"></a>

Once you’ve submitted your Cyber Essentials questionnaire, an assessor will review your answers to make sure they meet IASME’s standards.&#x20;

If any answers need more detail or a change in wording, the assessor will mark them as **“Further Information Required.”**&#x20;

You’ll receive an email letting you know if this happens. When you log back into your questionnaire, any questions that need your attention will be highlighted in **orange**, like this:&#x20;

There will be an Auditor Note explaining what is required/missing from your answer and only the questions that require further information will be editable at this stage.

Once you have made your changes, the progress bar will go back to 100% allowing you to resubmit for the assessor to review your updated responses.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.cybaops.com/support/cyber-essentials-further-information-required.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
