The Cyber Centre of Excellence (CCoE) exists to strengthen cyber resilience across the UK’s public sector and wider communities. Established in response to the growing scale and complexity of cyber threats, the CCoE provides practical, high-quality protection, insight and support to organisations responsible for delivering vital public services. Operating as part of the IESE Group, the CCoE combines a strong not-for-profit ethos with access to leading cyber expertise, enabling the delivery of military-grade cyber security solutions at an accessible, sector-sensitive price point. Its work is guided by a distinguished Advisory Board of cyber specialists, ensuring alignment with emerging risks, evolving technologies and national standards, including those set by the National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC). The CCoE supports local authorities, health and care organisations, schools and businesses through a comprehensive suite of services. These include protective technologies, training, testing, and ongoing guidance and strategic support. A key focus is on identifying, testing and deploying effective cyber solutions, working collaboratively with the public sector to pilot and refine approaches that can be scaled nationally.
Driven by a clear purpose, to help make the UK the safest place to live and work in the digital world, the CCoE enables organisations not only to respond to cyber threats, but to stay ahead of them.
