How are the services delivered?
Our services are regularly reviewed with government and law enforcement cybercrime data, to ensure that we help you improve your resilience from the types of cyber threat that are most common for your type of organisation.
We deliver this through an innovative UK Talent Pipeline Programme, where the UK leading universities in cyber skills partner with policing and the private sector to provide commercial training and oversight for students to deliver this work.
Our programme helps to prepare and speed up the UK's talent pipeline by providing high quality work experience, ensuring that law enforcement, defence and critical national infrastructure can fill their skills gap to protect us all at work and at home.
We’ve interviewed and selected the best talent from across the region, working with students
from 2nd year undergraduate to postgraduate. They’re current, background checked, and
insured - and they work under the guidance of acknowledged and experienced national cyber
specialists, delivering each service using industry standard tools and techniques. The students will work with you to understand your needs, working ethically alongside seconded Police officers to ensure you only invest in what is necessary.
Once you have made an enquiry, we will arrange a conversation with you to agree your cyber
concerns and needs; we’ll then follow up with a more detailed conversation, with one of the
technical team, to explore the relevance and extent of the work you require, which can vary
depending on the complexity of your own organisation and systems.
We’ll then give you an obligation free quotation for the work, and if you want to engage our
team, we’ll find the right person from our student team to deliver that work in a timely and
professional manner. The work is overseen by our experienced consultants. We always provide
full reporting, and a presentation of findings, at which you can ask questions and develop a
more detailed understanding. And, if we uncover any high-risk issues during the process, we’ll
let you know immediately, and help you navigate how to remediate these.
We recently delivered our Security Awareness Training service to a large West Midlands based organisation who deliver retirement services in the UK, One of the session's attendees said:
"I highly recommend contacting the Cyber Resilience Centre for the West Midlands to discuss the advice and training they offer businesses. The training was informative and the delivery was excellent, ensuring every delegate understood the importance of cyber security and that it’s everyone’s responsibility."
