The Government will build cyber security resilience through: the adoption of National Cyber Security Centre’s ‘Active Cyber Defence’ measures, migration away from insecure legacy or unsupported IT systems (such as the type affected by the recent ransomware attacks) and the safe adoption of commodity technology and cloud services.</p><p> </p><p>In addition, Government will shortly issue new Baseline Cyber Security Standards to all central Government departments and their agencies. There is also sizeable investment and emphasis on creation of a new Government security profession that will create a pipeline of cyber security talent and address skills shortages.
