IoD welcomes launch of the Cyber Governance Code of Practice
The UK Government’s new Cyber Governance package, underpinned by the Cyber Governance Code of Practice, outlines key actions for business leaders to strengthen their organisations’ cyber resilience.
Members of the Institute of Directors advised on the Code through panel discussions and a series of consultative workshops.
Dr. Erin Young, Head of Innovation and Technology Policy at the Institute of Directors, said:
“With cyber attacks becoming more frequent, harmful and costly, cyber resilience is now a crucial boardroom responsibility. The new Cyber Governance Code of Practice provides practical guidance for boards and directors to effectively govern cyber risk and safeguard future growth.
“We welcome the collaborative approach from government to strengthening national cyber security, and encourage all our members and the wider UK business community to engage with these new resources.”
