I refer the noble Lord to the answer given by my hon. Friend the Minister for the Armed Forces (Mark Lancaster) to Question 2033 on 4 July 2017, and to Questions 1544 and 2066 on 5 July 2017.<\/p>

In addition, I have included below examples of the breadth of our approach to improve our cyber warfare capability and defences.<\/p>

<\/p>

The National Offensive Cyber Programme is a partnership between the Ministry of Defence (MOD) and Government Communications Headquarters (GCHQ), harnessing the skills and talents of both organisations to deliver the tools, techniques and tradecraft required for the UK to establish a world-class offensive cyber capability. We have confirmed previously that offensive cyber capabilities have been used by the Armed Forces as part of the campaign against Daesh. We are clear that such capabilities must be used in accordance with domestic, international and humanitarian law.<\/p>

<\/p>

The National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC) opened in October 2016, following a commitment in the 2015 Strategic Defence and Security Review. The NCSC provides the UK with a unified platform to handle incidents and serves as a single point of contact in Government. The MOD is working closely with NCSC to protect our systems.<\/p>

<\/p>

The threats and opportunities presented through cyberspace extend across national and organisational boundaries. We continue to work closely with Allies and multinational institutions to operate effectively and increase our awareness of common threats. The UK is recognised as one of the leaders on cyber issues at NATO. Furthermore, the UK is central to international dialogue on cyber; for example, last October we hosted the second in a series of international cyber symposiums, titled \u2018Cyberspace and the Transformation of 21st Century Warfare\u2019.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/2000", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Earl Howe"} } , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Earl Howe"} , "attachment" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/751160/answer/attachment/1", "fileName" : {"_value" : "Hansard Extracts Cyber Warfare.docx"} , "title" : "Armed Forces: Cybercrime"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2017-07-26", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2017-07-26T13:20:49.623Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "11"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Defence"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Defence"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2017-07-12", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Exercise"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "2"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25277", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Lords"} } ], "questionText" : "Her Majesty's Government what steps they have taken to improve their cyber warfare capability and defences.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/1796", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Lord Taylor of Warwick"} } , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Lord Taylor of Warwick"} ], "uin" : "HL757"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/751181", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Ministry of Defence"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/751181/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "
