The National Cyber Security Centre takes a co-ordinated approach
From: Government Europa
At March 2018’s SCTX event, held in London, UK, Government Europaheard Hans de Vries, Head of the National Cyber Security Centre, the Netherlands, talk about the cyber threat to government agencies.
Following publication of 2018’s National Strategic Assessment (NSA) of Serious and Organised Crime by the National Crime Agency (NCA), the scale of cyber-crime in the UK is still reported to be rising, both in terms of scale and complexity. However, under-reporting of data breaches means that such assessments are unable to provide an accurate image as to the true scale of the problem.
NCA Director General Lynne Owens commented on the assessment: ‘This year’s assessment shows that organised crime groups are exploiting digital technology, for instance using encryption to communicate and dark web market places to aid their activities.’ At March 2018’s Security & Counter Terror Expo (SCTX), held in London, UK, Government Europa Quarterly heard Hans de Vries, Head of the National Cyber Security Centre, the Netherlands, talk about the cyber threat to government agencies.
