RSA Conference 2019 Guide to the UK Pavilion Welcome to GREAT Britain and Northern Ireland – Home to one of the world’s most advanced cyber security industries.

It is my pleasure to welcome you to the UK Pavilion at RSA 2019, and introduce you to the UK’s world-leading cyber security industry.

The UK’s cyber sector is respected across the globe for its expertise, breadth of capabilities, and world class advice, products and services. Worth £22 billion, the sector employs over 100,000 people within 800 companies and is growing at a rate of 10% per year. Cyberspace is, and will continue to be, a vital, and expanding, part of the UK economy.

The UK Government is committed to making the UK one of the most secure places in the world to do business online, and the best place in the world to start and grow a digital business. As part of the Government’s £1.9 billion investment in a new National Cyber Security Strategy, the National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC) was launched in 2016, bringing together our best intelligence and expertise to be our single centre of excellence, and the authoritative voice on information security in the UK. Since its inception, the NCSC has dealt with well over 1000 cyber security incidents and has led the way for UK Government to routinely be the first in the world to advise our citizens on how global cyber incidents affect them.

As well as providing greater insight into the nature of the threats we face, the National Cyber Security Centre’s successes include a pioneering Active Cyber Defence programme, delivered with industry to block attacks on a scale of millions per month, and the development of a world-leading incident management response capability, made possible through key partnerships with law enforcement and the wider cyber security community. It has reached out internationally to strengthen global cyber defences and our collective ability to deter and disrupt malicious actors, and continues to inspire the next generation of cyber security experts and entrepreneurs. We remain very proud of our work on skills in schools, particularly our CyberFirst Girls Competition which this year attracted more than 4,500 highly talented 12 and 13-year-old female students with an interest in cyber security. There are also two new Cyber Security Innovation Centres, a Cyber Innovation Fund to help innovative cyber start-ups gain early stage capital and a government partner, and a number of additional programmes to develop existing talent and drive growth.

The single, clear message that underpins our cyber security strategy is that while we can lead the way, we cannot solve these problems alone. We need not just a whole of government but a whole of society approach to tackle cyber security.

RSA Conference 2018 | Guide to the UK Pavilion

Fortunately the UK’s cyber industry offers services and technical solutions to protect the critical assets of government, businesses, and organisations to detect and prevent cybercrime and protect consumers.

Well established providers have decades of experience protecting highly classified networks across a range of locations and domains, whilst UK SMEs have won a range of global security and innovation awards for new technologies and products.

Furthermore, recognizing that a thriving UK cyber security sector is a key national security and prosperity objective, last year the Secretary of State for the Department for International Trade, Dr. Liam Fox, launched the UK’s Cyber Security Export Strategy.

Given the increasing number of cyber attacks on NATO countries and companies of all sizes, in addition to the accelerated pace of digital change and the expansion of global digital economies, there has never been a better time to promote the UK’s world-leading expertise to international markets, and to strengthen the defence capabilities within the UK and our trusted allies, especially the US.

The UK cyber security companies exhibiting on the Department for International Trade’s RSA 2019 pavilion are all exemplars of this world leading industry and you can learn more about them from this brochure. As well as showcasing their innovative solutions in a broad range of cyber security requirements, such as the protection of critical assets and infrastructure, cutting edge research and the prevention and detection of cybercrime, they are also looking to develop close partnerships and forge lasting relationships that will support the US cyber security sector in its aims of securing the safety of the nation.

On behalf of these exhibiting companies, I would like to welcome you to our UK Pavilion at South Hall Expo S1847.
