Development of a cyber capability in CIOR
Recognising that most cyber operatives were in the reserves and that a number of CIOR members had access to their skillsets, CIOR have subsequently provided guidance on the pathways and challenges in setting up cyber force from a reserve perspective and run workshops and events to brief on the subject.
Sharing Best Practice
The varied nature of reserves across the confederation can make it hard to share information of a secure nature. Due to this most of the work of the Cyber Working Group and now CR-C has been done at the unclassified level. The CR-C has declared a clear and ambitious intent to act as a Cyber Reserve Thinktank for NATO and to be able to signpost to Reserve Cyber expertise.The focus over the next period is to:
• Act as a network for Cyber Reserves.• Advise on the creation and management of Cyber Reserves.
• Provide Cyber Security knowledge for the CIOR community.
• Educating YROW.
• Cyber-awareness training and signposting to training.
• Conduct Cyber Security Audit.
