Question to the Cabinet Office:

To ask the Minister for the Cabinet Office, what recent assessment the Government has made of the level of threat posed by cyber attacks to charities or third sector bodies contracted to do work for local authorities or providing a public service in conjunction with those authorities.

The National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC) regularly assesses the level of threat posed to a wide range of organisations. The NCSC also works with other organisations, including the Charity Commission, to ensure that assessment information, tailored advice, and guidance is provided to organisations where appropriate and relevant.
