Launched by the UK Cyber Security Minister, a new Cyber Governance Code of Practice sets out how business leaders can develop a cyber strategy to ensure cyber risk management effectively supports business resilience and growth.
Other key actions include promoting a cyber secure culture so employees at all levels know what to look out for, and putting incident response plans in place, allowing organizations to quickly respond to incidents when they occur.
The Cyber Governance Code of Practice has been created to support boards and directors in governing cyber security risks. It sets out the most critical governance actions that directors are responsible for in this area.
The Code forms part of the UK Government’s free package of support on cyber governance and should be the first point of reference for board members says the Government.
