The North West Cyber Resilience Centre want to help raise awareness of the cyber threats that come with moving online and provide practical support to help protect small businesses based in Greater Manchester from online crime.
The pandemic has seen a 400% increase in reports of cyber fraud with small businesses finding themselves at the greatest risk and without access to relevant, affordable and trusted support. This program will help to protect businesses against online crime at a time when suffering an attack could mean the difference between a business staying open and closing down.
A deep understanding of cyber security, online or digital technology is not needed. The Cyber Resilience Centre’s role is to help educate your staff and help you to increase awareness of the latest cyber threats that come with operating online and provide practical support to help protect your businesses from online crime.
This program includes three key parts:
Business Starter Membership – This 12-month membership (usually £500) includes Security Awareness Training (for two members of staff). This ensures your staff are the strongest defence against cyber-attacks by equipping them with the information they need to identify, report and stop any attempts before any damage can be done.
Cyber Security Policy and Procedure Templates – This documentation ensures your business has the most recent cybersecurity policies and procedures in place. They have been designed by Cyber Security Consultants and will help staff ensure your business has clear security strategies and can respond efficiently if an incident occurs.
1-2-1 Security Consultation – This consultation (up to 1 hour) allows The North West Cyber Resilience Centre to work with you to review what current security measures you have in place, answer any questions you have about cyber security and work with you to create a plan for how to monitor and secure your digital footprint.
