The UK Government have launched two consultations as part of their wider cyber resilience work which is helping organisations across the economy adopt stronger cyber security measures.
The UK Government want to update the Network and Information Systems (NIS Regulations) which came into force in 2018, to improve the cyber security of companies. They are consulting on new measures to help improve business’ cyber security, particularly in organisations which play a role in the UK economy, like managed IT service providers.
In addition, a separate consultation on embedding standards and pathways across the cyber profession is also published. This details proposals for how a stronger cyber security profession can support better cyber resilience.
