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

The scheme is managed by the National Cyber Security Centre. It is aimed at enterprise IT and not operations technologies such as telecoms systems. There are alternative schemes that cover the operational side of telecoms companies such as TBEST and Commodity Assured Service for Telecoms (CAS(T)).</p><p> </p><p>Telecommunications companies identified as Operators of Essential Services are required to implement cyber security improvements as a result of the Network Information Systems Directive (NIS Directive). This NIS Directive was transposed into UK domestic legislation in May 2018. The measures that Operators of Essential Services need to implement to comply with the NIS Regulations go beyond the requirements of CyberEssentials.</p> answering member constituency Stourbridge answering member printed Margot James question first answered 30/10/2018 17:27:41 answering member 4115 label Biography information for Margot James
