Business leaders have been advised to prioritize cyber security and view it as a major business risk, according to a new draft code of practice published by the UK government. The code, developed in collaboration with industry experts and the National Cyber Security Centre, aims to help executives and non-executive directors strengthen their organization’s cyber resilience and protect against cyber attacks. Some of the key recommendations include setting clear roles and responsibilities for cyber security, increasing protection for customers, and establishing detailed plans to respond to and recover from potential incidents. The code also emphasizes the need for regular testing and employee training to improve cyber skills and awareness. The government is seeking feedback from businesses on the code to further enhance its value.
