Cyber Resilience Centre
For SMEs

"We would like to express our gratitude to the NEBRC for their exceptional presentation on cyber security threats in the education sector at our recent YH02 event. The content was incredibly relevant and informative, and we appreciate the time and effort that went into preparing the material. We were particularly impressed with the Decisions and Disruptions Lego Exercise that the NEBRC ran with our members. The exercise was an engaging and interactive way to reinforce the importance of cyber security practices and provided valuable insights into the thought processes of our members when faced with potential security threats. As network managers in education, our members deal with cyber security issues on a daily basis, so we appreciated that the content was appropriate for their level of understanding. The NEBRC's presentation and exercise were both thought provoking and informative and the members' feedback shows that they enjoyed and benefited greatly from the experience. We highly recommend the NEBRC's services to anyone seeking to improve their organisations cyber security practices, thank you again for your excellent work!"

"The support offered to Spencer Hayes Group by the NEBRC has been invaluable to us. The NEBRC team delivered helpful and informative advice to our listeners during our webinar, ensuring the listeners was well informed and went away more knowledgeable on how they can keep themselves safe online. NEBRC created a bespoke presentation that suited our listeners and their businesses which was delivered exceptionally well. We recommend any organisation to get in touch with the NEBRC to have the opportunity to learn more about how they can avoid risks online. In the current climate, it is so important for all of us to understand the ever changing challenges we face."

“As a team working within education we were aware that cyber security is a key issue for our sector. We wanted therefore to understand more, and what we might need to change and implement to help ensure we did not become victim to online hackers and fraud. We contacted the NEBRC and arranged for their expert team to deliver a practical, training session. It was fantastic, very well delivered and very thought provoking. Everyone who attended enjoyed it and found it extremely useful. As a team working across various work areas, we all now feel more confident following the session and will be taking various recommendations forward to better support our business. Our thanks to the NEBRC team for their time and support.”

“The NEBRC recently delivered a presentation for businesses at the Elmet & Selby Business Forum where local businesses get together to share ideas, knowledge, and best practice. The presentation was engaging, interactive and extremely useful, giving us all further insight and understanding into cyber and business resilience. As a group we are all now more aware of the key issues and what to look out for, armed with practical guidance and toolkits to better support our organisation and those we work with. Cyber and business resilience is a necessary foundation for all businesses, and I would recommend any organisation operating within our region to get in touch with the NEBRC to understand more about best practices and strategies for them.”

"As a small, fledgling business, it's been a fantastic opportunity to take stock and consider how to embed the right skills and put digital safety and security at the core of all decision making. The business now has a clear set of recommendations and roadmap to improve the site , applying the learning and building on this new core knowledge to maintain ongoing site security. Many thanks to the team at the NEBRC for their help and support."

"With the launch of our new property investment platform, we approached NEBRC for assistance with securing our data. The team were more than happy to help and they kept us fully informed throughout the entire process. Upon completion, they provided us with a full in-depth report that covered all aspects of the work carried out. We are very happy with the results and would highly recommend their services."

"We were made aware of the NEBRC when we became members of the West Yorkshire Chamber of Commerce. Following this we were offered a free review of the website which highlighted potential vulnerabilities and the team then talked us through in great detail how to overcome each stage. This has allowed me to work with increased confidence knowing my business is safer online."

“Just wanted to let you know that our business was successful with our cyber essentials certification. I wanted to say a huge thank you to you as we would have really struggled without your help. I came into this not knowing much about it and your support and guidance was very helpful. Thanks again for your time and I really appreciate you going through everything with me patiently over the phone"

"Cross Gates Good Neighbours would like to thank you and all at NEBRC who contributed your skill and diligence to this really valuable work, and also to thank your Director for her generosity".

"I wanted to write to you to express my thanks for helping us out with a speaker for our roadshow at such short notice. Martin Wilson demonstrated exceptional flexibility and was able to support us around his other commitments. His presentation was spot on and went down very well with our audience, from a range of businesses (mostly SME) from across Healthcare, Finance, Manufacturing and Public Sector. We received some lovely feedback from one delegate, who wrote: “It was really insightful and thought provoking with lots of key takeaways and learnings. There’s certainly lots for us to do to improve our position and approach to resilience but excited to implement some of the things discussed."

"We're incredibly grateful to NEBRC for coming to our office and providing training to everyone in the business on Cyber threats. The presentation was really great and easy to digest, and left us all questioning our current security habits to ensure it stands the test of the current times."
