5A: Cyber Resilience: Using the Cyber Assurance Framework (CAF) to build proportionate cyber defences

2.30pm – 3.10pm GMT, 19 March 2024 ‐ 40 mins

Session

Core to the UK Government's National Cyber Strategy is the CAF, a framework that is objectives led and tailored to specific sectors. 

Critical National Infrastructure (CNI), as well as Central and Local Government are increasingly being encouraged to adopt the CAF as their cyber standard, due to its wealth of supporting literature, making it ideal for companies in all sectors to adopt. 

 
In this session you gain insight as to how the CAF could work for your organisation, and what this means for Local Government through 2024 as CAF becomes increasingly encouraged in public sector.
