"Set up at the beginning of the year by the National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC) and the Department for Science, Innovation and Technology (DSIT), the scheme forms part of a wider £210m commitment by Westminster to remodel approaches to public sector cyber resilience from the ground up, acknowledging that previous approaches to the issue have basically gone nowhere and that previously set targets for resilience are unachievable."
"The code moves software security beyond narrow compliance and elevates it to a board-level resilience priority. As supply chain attacks continue to grow in scale and impact, a shared baseline is essential and through our global community and expertise, ISC2 is committed to helping professionals build the skills needed to put secure-by-design principles into practice,"
"Promoting secure software practices that strengthen the resilience of systems underpinning the economy, public services and national infrastructure is central to ISC2's mission,"
The UK launched the Software Security Ambassador Scheme via NCSC and DSIT as part of a £210m programme to rebuild public sector cyber resilience. The scheme aims to incentivise organisations to prioritise software product security and to support adoption of the voluntary Software Security Code of Practice. ISC2 joined the scheme as an expert adviser alongside major technology vendors, consultancies, financial firms, and peer associations. ISC2 emphasizes elevating software security from narrow compliance to a board-level resilience priority and helping professionals develop skills to implement secure-by-design principles amid growing supply chain attack risks.
