IT Governance offers 10% discount on security solutions in response to UK Government’s £1.9bn Cyber Security Strategy

ELY, CAMBRIDGESHIRE, UNITED KINGDOM, November 2, 2016 /EINPresswire.com/ -- IT Governance, the leading provider of cyber security expertise and solutions, is announcing a 10% discount on a wide range of cyber security solutions.

This comes in response to the UK Government’s 2016 to 2021 National Cyber Security Strategy, which will include a £1.9 billion government investment in cyber security. The strategy aims to “provide the UK with the next generation of cyber security to defend our data, systems and networks”, to help defend and grow the cyber security sector, and to develop the critical capabilities that make the United Kingdom a global leader in cyber security.

Alan Calder, the founder and chief executive officer of IT Governance, said: “The UK Government’s £1.9 billion National Cyber Security Strategy shows that cyber crime is a serious concern in the current and foreseeable economic environment. We urge organisations to take accountability for their information security and implement the international best practice for information security, ISO 27001, to help protect their most valuable assets.”

Cabinet Office minister Ben Gummer said: "cyber-attacks are a reality and they are happening now. Our adversaries are varied - organised criminal groups, 'hactivists', untrained teenagers and foreign states. The first duty of the Government is to keep the nation safe.”

Organisations looking to prevent cyber attacks and improve their cyber security posture can take advantage of IT Governance’s 10% discount on a wide range of information security and cyber security solutions by using the voucher code UK-CYBER at checkout when ordering online or over the phone.

The discount applies to penetration testing services including the Wireless Network Penetration Test, the Web Application Penetration Test and the Infrastructure Penetration Test, which are designed to help organisations identify and fix any potential vulnerabilities. Additionally, organisations can test their employees’ ability to detect a phishing scam by conducting an Employee Phishing Vulnerability Assessment.

The offer also includes the ISO 27001 consultancy packages ISO 27001 Get A Little Help, ISO 27001 Get A Lot Of Help, ISO 27001 Online FastTrack™ Consultancy and ISO 27001 Bespoke Consultancy, which are designed to help organisations implement an ISMS and achieve compliance with ISO 27001 in a cost- and time-effective manner.

Organisations and SMEs with limited budgets that are looking to achieve a basic level of cyber security and prevent “around 80% of cyber threats” can opt for IT Governance’s Cyber Essentials packaged solutions: Do It Yourself, Get A Little Help and Get A Lot Of Help.
