SBRC Adds Ransomware Scenario to Security Training Program
The Scottish Business Resilience Center (SBRC) has announced a ransomware-focused update to its facilitation of the National Cyber Security Center’s (NCSC) Exercise in a Box program, which it has been running with businesses across Scotland since late 2020.
The program – delivered with support from the Scottish Government, Police Scotland and other stakeholders – sees workshops provided to businesses via Zoom or Microsoft Teams. The workshops focus on cyber-resilience, exploring various scenarios to test organizations’ response capabilities in a safe and measured environment.
In recognition of the rise in ransomware infections impacting public and private sector organizations within the UK, the SBRC has launched the NCSC’s Phishing Attack that Leads to a Ransomware Infection scenario, in addition to its Working from Home scenario.
