Board members have a critical role in ensuring their organisations are not just resilient and secure, but are ready to exploit the opportunities that technology brings. The Toolkit helps Boards to ensure that cyber resilience and risk management are embedded throughout an organisation, including its people, systems, processes and technologies.
How to use the Toolkit
The Toolkit is organised around the Cyber Governance Code of Practice (opens to gov.uk), and explains how Boards can implement the principles outlined in the Code. It includes two introductory modules: the first on the Toolkit structure and the second for those new to cyber security.
