View answerFor operational and national security reasons, I do not disclose detailed information on staffing, role titles or headcount relating to my Department’s cybersecurity arrangements. Responsibilities for cybersecurity are clearly assigned within the Department and delivered in conjunction with specialist security partners, ensuring that all key areas are covered in line with recognised industry frameworks and relevant Government guidance to protect public services.
