From www.icaew.com: (UK context) The UK government has launched a new Cyber Governance Code of Practice to enhance cyber resilience in businesses, urging them to develop strategies that integrate cyber risk management with overall business resilience.

The Code emphasizes the need for a ‘cyber-secure culture’ among employees and provides guidelines for incident response plans to mitigate damage from cyber incidents.

The initiative aims to improve the cybersecurity landscape across the UK, addressing a significant gap where about one-third of large businesses lack a formal cyber strategy.
