An innovative new product, specifically designed for Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (SMEs), has been built by the government’s National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC).
A bespoke briefing session will take place on 22nd March 2019 in Sheffield to demonstrate the brand new product. The briefing is offered by Yorkshire and Humber Regional Organised Crime Unit working in partnership with NCSC. Our MD, Andrew Mills, plans to attend to find out more. Could it benefit your business too?
What is this innovative product?
Well, the NCSC advice for businesses is to carry out “exercises” to assess your cyber security status. They state that “exercising is one of the most powerful approaches that a company can undertake to gauge it’s resilience to be able to manage cyber-attacks”. They recognise, though, that the ability of SMEs to test themselves is often difficult, due to costs or complexity. And this is where the new product comes in…
It is a complete package of exercise advice, scenarios and supporting material that will provide your organisation with everything it needs to run and facilitate exercises from start to finish. It can also be used by non-cyber specialist staff; it’s not just for the IT types.
The briefing session on 22nd March 2019
The event will take place from 10.15 until 14.00 at a venue (tbc) in Sheffield. Lunch will be provided. For an opportunity to be one of the first companies to trial the product before it is launched, you will need an invitation to this briefing session. Invitations will be on a first come first served basis. Contact cyber@yhrocu.pnn.police.uk to request your invitation.
