Establishing Cyber Security education,
awareness, training and trust for SMEs Roger
Dean, Executive Directorwww.eema.org

The Challenge
  • SMEs are the most vulnerable due to
  • No in house resources
  • No funding
  • No technical knowledge
  • Once infected the vulnerability could infect the
    whole supply chain
  • SMEs believe that their business will be
    invisible and will not be worth targeting by
    cyber criminals this is a myth the we need to
    overcome.
  • It is imperative to communicate to SMEs that
    cyber security and risk management are a core
    threat that can destabilise their business.

3
The solution
  • Market research in at least three EU states
  • Raising awareness to acquire and disseminate
    cyber security knowledge and skills.
  • Compile best practice training and education
    programme
  • Initiate a short term market test programme
  • Develop innovative techniques to facilitate hard
    to reach sectors

4
User Experience
  • We have the skills and capability to manage a
    cyber risk project
  • It is clearly in the interests of business to
    provide leadership and investment in this area
  • We have a strong cyber security education and
    training base
  • We have a vision for a vibrant, resilient and
    secure cyberspace
  • Collaboration with other organisations such as
    ENISA, BCS, Chamber of Commerce
  • This sprint will be greatly enhanced by EU
    Regulation and National campaigns which would
    champion the SMEs responsibility to ensure their
    cyber security.

5
The Benefits/Impact
  • This will contribute to economic prosperity,
    protect the supply chain and a strong society
  • A highly skilled workforce will enable cyber
    suppliers to derive maximum benefit from these
    opportunities
  • Connect and mentoring SMEs through liaison with
    larger organisations
  • Create a code of SME Best Practice Guidelines
  • Establish a pipeline of SME stories, media
    interviews, stories, news releases, industry
    commentary
  • In consultation with professional accountancy
    bodies define a set of cyber security audit
    requirements

6
Timescales
  • Maximum 3 months to complete the sprint.
  • Initial market research 4 weeks
  • Collaborate with other cyber security
    organisations 4 weeks
  • Create awareness and training programme 4 weeks
  • Develop innovative solutions to enable hard to
    reach sectors 5 weeks
  • Self audit by SMEs to measure effectiveness of
    the exercise 2 weeks
  • Obviously some of these activities will run in
    parallel

7
Requirments
  • Enlist experts in awareness and education to find
    creative solutions to the problems
  • Research in partnership with a sample group of
    SMEs in three EU Member states to inform and
    support the SPRINT
  • Time and travel expenses
