Cybersecurity
The question
To ask the Minister for the Cabinet Office, what plans he has to update the National Cyber Security Strategy.
Answered by Ms Abena Oppong-Asare
The current National Cyber Strategy sets out a vision to 2030 and specific outcomes to achieve by 2025. The Government is currently reviewing a wide range of national security and resilience priorities. Any decisions on UK cyber strategy will be informed by this wider work and we will confirm plans in due course.
Our digital economy is increasingly being attacked by cyber criminals and state actors, and we need to take swift action to address vulnerabilities and protect our digital economy to deliver growth. This is why in the first session we are introducing the Cyber Security and Resilience Bill which will strengthen the UK’s cyber defences and ensure that critical infrastructure and the digital services that companies rely on are secure.
