Cyber Centre of Excellence
For Local Public Services
On behalf of the public sector, iESE has pulled together technology and skills from organisations representing best practice in the cyber security industry to deliver a range of products and services. A shared service in the best traditions of local public services ensures that we all have the best people, the best technology, and the best protection. Working together we have created the Cyber Centre of Excellence (CCoE) to stop these attacks before they happen, rather than just report the bad news when it is too late.
What is the Cyber Centre of Excellence?
Our mission is to ensure that the UK is the safest place to live, work and play in the digital world.
The Cyber Centre of Excellence (CCOE) is an initiative aimed at all local authorities and UK public bodies to help them stay abreast of cyber threats and give them access to military-grade protection at high street prices. It will be able to assist with the full remit of what an organisation needs to do and know to stay as cyber secure as possible. Sitting behind the CCOE is an Advisory Forum of some of the UK’s leading experts in cyber security. This group will keep the CCOE up to date with threats and abreast of new innovations.

- Kurtis Toy, vCISO and Convener of the Cyber Centre of Excellence
- Dr Andrew Larner, Chief Executive of iESE
