UK s National Cyber Security Centre highlights the success of its Active Cyber Defence (ACD) program
The UK’s National Cyber Security Center (NCSC – part of GCHQ) Active Cyber Defense (ACD) program is an ambitious project designed to improve the security posture of an entire nation. It does this primarily through the rapid identification and takedown of malicious websites; the timely delivery of actionable threat intelligence to organizations; and a range of other mechanisms.
ACD primarily serves UK government departments, agencies and ‒ since the outbreak of the Covid-19 pandemic ‒ the NHS. However, a new facet known as ACD Broadening, is actively exploring the expansion of the service to include private sector organizations and even foreign countries and their governments.
