No estimate of the numbers of consumers who will benefit has been made, nor is one planned. This would be hard to do with accuracy.</p><p>The NCSC Cyber Accelerator, and London Office for Rapid Cyber Advancement (LORCA) work with companies to develop products and services that will enhance the UK’s cyber ecosystem, servicing the needs of national security and industry, as well as consumers.</p><p>In the past 18 months the first two cohorts of the NCSC Cyber Accelerator have raised more than £20 million in funding, and created 19 UK jobs. The Third cohort started in October 2018. The nine companies selected to take part in LORCA’s first programme started in July. LORCA are currently recruiting for a second cohort to start in early 2019.</p> answering member constituency Stourbridge answering member printed Margot James question first answered 28/11/2018 19:36:53 answering member 4115 label Biography information for Margot James

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 20/11/2018 answer text <p>Although estimates of the cost of cyber crime vary considerably, there are millions of individual victims, many thousands of corporate victims and correspondingly substantial losses. Therefore, whilst there is no robust estimate of the total cost of cyber crime to the UK economy it is likely to be billions.</p><p>The Economic and Social Costs of Crime report (Home Office, 2018) estimated a cost of £1.1bn from computer misuse incidents against individuals in the financial year 2015/16. However, it should be noted that this estimate is based upon experimental statistics and should be considered as a partial estimate as it excludes some key costs, such as the costs to businesses.</p> answering member constituency Wyre and Preston North answering member printed Mr Ben Wallace question first answered 20/11/2018 17:21:58 answering member 1539 label Biography information for Mr Ben Wallace
