Cyber security alert issued following rising attacks on UK academia
The National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC) has issued an alert to the academic sector, advising them of a number of steps they can take to keep cyber criminals out of their networks, following a recent spike in ransomware attacks against UK schools, colleges and universities.
The alert includes advice on the questions governing bodies and trustees should ask school leaders to improve a school’s understanding of cyber security risks, and the distribution of information cards which help staff understand how they can raise their school’s resilience to attack.
