The collaborative efforts within the Cyber League will seek to play a pivotal role in advancing visibility and monitoring both existing and emerging cyber threats to the UK. By fostering cooperation between industry experts and NCSC analysts, this initiative contributes significantly to fortifying the nation’s cyber resilience.

NCSC director of operations, Paul Chichester on Cyber League: “Cyber defence is a giant, complex and ever changing puzzle, with critical knowledge, skills and innovation spread widely across industry and government. Only through working together can we achieve our collective aim of making the UK the safest place to live and work online.”
