Cyber Security - A Strategic Framework for Action

Cyber crime is a significant threat to public services, businesses, individuals and society at large. Therefore Cyber Security is considered a priority area for government, working alongside business, academia and other key stakeholders to ensure NI is as best protected as possible. Each of us have responsibilities to protect our own personal data as the public sector must ensure public services maintain the trust of individuals and businesses effectively protect their customer data.

Cyber Security: A Strategic Framework for Action, which closely aligns to the UK Cyber Security Strategy, sets out what top level areas need to be addressed through collaborative working across the public and private sectors to help ensure we capitalise on the economic opportunities this presents, but equally ensure we are as well protected as we can and when necessary have the right support infrastructures in place to respond effectively and efficiently to cyber attacks and crimes.
