The NCSC has come up with 4 simple & free measures for government departments to improve basic cyber security, which are ready to be implemented immediately by departments & their arm’s-length bodies. None of them require additional money to implement. Nor are they overly technically complex to implement. The 4 measures in lay person’s terms are: *Blocking bad stuff from being accessed from government systems (Protected DNS) *Blocking bad emails pretending to be from government (DMARC anti-spoofing) *Helping public bodies fix bad things on their website (WebCheck) *Removing bad things from the Internet (phishing and malware mitigation) |
