Boosting cyber security resilience – essential risk management and compliance strategies for government suppliers

Building cyber security resilience for government suppliers

“If we look at the last year or two of cyber attacks there have been a lot of dramatic attacks. But one of the slow-burning, strategic issues is the integrity of the supply chain and how corporations and government departments manage that risk.”

Ciaran Martin, Head of the NCSC, April 2018

Whether you are a prime contractor or part of a government supply chain, cyber and information security will be high on your priority list. Not only do you hold your own information, but you may also well hold government information too – and you need to protect both accordingly.

You may have to prove compliance with a standard or model simply to participate in a contract – for example, the Cyber Essentials Scheme (CES), the MOD Cyber Security Model (CSM), NISR 2003 Regulation 22 or the government’s SPF.

Possibly you want to go one step beyond compliance to standards and schemes, so you can instil greater confidence among your stakeholders and build a superior competitive advantage. And for those of you whose businesses support national security and infrastructure, taking care of information assets may be mission-critical, with lives and reputations at stake.
