Cyber Resilience Centre Introduces Free Core Membership

The Cyber Resilience Centre for Greater Manchester (CRCGM) has a range of membership options, depending on what level of support businesses in Greater Manchester need.

The core membership is free and provides businesses with access to a range of resources and tools to help them identify their risks and vulnerabilities, as well as offering guidance on the steps they can take to increase their levels of protection.

Core Membership with CRCGM includes:
Welcome Pack – This includes ‘How to Identify your Cyber Risks’, the latest National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC) guidance, additional information on our cyber services and further membership options.

Free Guidance – how organisations can protect themselves in cyberspace, including the ‘10 steps to cybersecurity’ and ‘The Small Business Guide’.

Newsletter – regular, digestible updates which are relevant to organisations in Greater Manchester about cyber resilience.

Services Introduction – Briefing on our cyber services and how these can be tailored to your individual needs.

The centre is headed up by Director, Neil Jones, who commented; “I am excited to launch our core membership offering in the fight against cybercrime.

“The increase in remote working with lockdown has contributed to the increase in cyber-attacks on businesses.

“The threat is very real and can render a business inoperable as well as causing them significant reputational and financial damage. But many smaller businesses can’t afford to access cybersecurity consultancy or services.

“The CRC has launched this core membership to support local business with a range of resources whilst also delivering affordable services to help businesses mitigate their cybersecurity risks.”

You can register for membership on their website and read more about other paid membership options.
