The UK’s National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC) launched a scheme on November 11 to help critical infrastructure operators and government bodies choose providers to assess their cyber defences. Under the Cyber Adversary Simulation scheme, commercial providers are assessed against a standard set by the centre.
The centre says the assessments can help organisations see how well they prevent, detect and respond to simulated incidents. The scheme sits alongside the NCSC’s existing Cyber Assessment Framework and Cyber Resilience Audit scheme.
The centre says the programme is starting in a limited form so it can gauge demand and refine the scheme before expanding it.
