The government has issued a draft code of practice on cyber security governance to help businesses strengthen their protection against cyber-attack
The draft code, published this week, sets out key actions for executive and non-executive directors and other business leaders to take to reduce risks. It recommends directors set out clear roles and responsibilities across their organisations, and have detailed plans in place to respond to and recover from any cyber incidents. It recommends this plan be regularly tested and include a formal system for reporting incidents.
Views are invited on the draft code until 19 March. For more details, and to read the draft code, visit the GOV.UK call for views.
