MEMBERSHIP organisation NNBN has joined the fight against cyber crime.
It has become a Friend of the East Midlands Cyber Resilience Centre, a collaboration between business, the police and academia to make doing business online safer.
NNBN is encouraging businesses, charities and other organisations around the county to become involved with the EMCRC’s initiatives.
“We fully support the work of the East Midlands Cyber Resilience Centre in working with businesses, charities and organisations to help reduce cyber crime and, to show our commitment, we are delighted to have become a Friend of the EMCRC,” said NNBN’s managing director Simon Cox.
The EMCRC is inviting Northamptonshire businesses and business leaders to join, either as a Friend or as community ambassadors, community members or board members. Find out more at emcrc.co.uk.
Colin Ellis, managing director and police delivery lead at the EMCRC, said: “NNBN are a brilliant business membership organisation, constantly striving to serve and promote the interests of businesses in Northamptonshire.
“Simon recognises the value of what the EMCRC can offer business as he understands the importance of businesses being resilient to online crime. I am therefore delighted with the association and look forward to the CRC and NNBN working together in the future”.
The CRC model is acclaimed by the National Police Chiefs’ Council and is part of a network of police-led Cyber Resilience Centres each delivering essential cyber resilience services, guidance and education.
