Louise Haigh – 2016 Parliamentary Question to the Home Office

The below Parliamentary question was asked by Louise Haigh on 2016-01-22.

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, how many employees in her Department have (a) taken the CESG Certified Cyber-Security Training Course and (b) received other relevant cyber-security training.

Mr John Hayes

A revised set of CESG Certified Cyber-Security Training packages was launched in 2015.

We do not collate statistics on its use. The Home Office encourages all its staff to develop their information assurance skills which includes cyber security. This includes the Responsible for Information training package which covers core elements of cyber security.
