NATIONAL AMBASSADOR PROGRAMME
In NCRCG, we have a vehicle to lead the charge to strengthen our nation’s cyber resilience. We need to make sure law enforcement is able to learn from the insights and experiences of organisations from across the UK economy, including in the public, private and third sectors.
Our National Ambassador Programme provides an opportunity for the UK’s largest organisations to join together with senior law enforcement officials and government to inform national developments on cyber resilience and reduce the risk posed by cyber criminals to their supply chains, customer bases and the wider SME community.
