BAE Systems launches cyber security initiative

Published on: 11 Jul 2018

BAE Systems hopes to address the rise of increasingly frequent and aggressive cyber attacks with the launch of a new industry forum and lobbying group called the Intelligence Network.

The initiative aims to engage, unite and activate a global community of security professionals and industry influencers in their fight against cyber crime.

Julian Cracknell, managing director at BAE Systems Applied Intelligence, believes there is a groundswell of support for BAE’s customers, partners and employees to work together more closely for the greater good.

He hopes the Intelligence Network will bring together a community of like-minded global security professionals and industry influencers who share BAE’s vision with the aim of establishing a framework for creating a safer society by 2025.

“Through the work of the Intelligence Network, we want to kick-start conversations about the future of cyber defence,” he commented.

“We are inviting organisations to join the Intelligence Network; it is open to all, free to join and encourages active participation at all levels. Our call to the industry is this: be part of the change you want to see.”
