OFFERING FREE SUPPORT TO THE NHS DURING THE CORONAVIRUS PANDEMIC

During the current emergency many organisations are changing how they work, including a dramatic increase in working from home. This provides opportunities for criminals who would capitalise on the crisis. We expect an increase in cyberattacks, ransomware and data losses.

The Crisis Team is partnering with Klaatu IT Security and the ELIAS Partnership to offer any UK NHS service free support from our RAPTOR rapid response service. Based on a tried and tested military/government response model, RAPTOR has four elements to help your in-house service providers with rapid resolution of any cyber incident.

This is part of a wider initiative the Cyber Alliance to Defend Our Healthcare led by C5 Capital.

If you suspect you may be the subject of a cyberattack – CALL US! on 01793 676634 to talk to one of our rapid response specialists.
