NCSC Security Advice: Who Qualifies and What You Get
Learn how to access national guidance on protecting your digital assets and securing your remote workspace.
This scheme provides expert guidance to help individuals and companies stay safe from digital threats and manage their online risks.
Who it's for
This service is designed to support everyone within the country. It is available to all Irish citizens and covers businesses of all sizes. Whether you are an individual managing personal data or a company protecting commercial information, the guidance is intended for you.
What you get
The primary benefit is access to expert advice regarding the protection of digital assets. This includes information to help you secure your data and digital tools. Additionally, you can access specific guidance on remote work security, which is designed to help people who work outside of a traditional office environment maintain a safe and secure digital workspace.
What it costs you
There is no financial cost to access this information. The guidance is provided for free to help strengthen the overall digital resilience of the community.
The catch to know
It is important to understand that this is an advisory service. It provides information, best practices, and guidance to help you make better decisions. It is not a software tool, an antivirus program, or a piece of security software that you can download or install onto your computers or devices. You must take the information provided and apply it yourself to your own systems.
How to apply
Because this is an advisory service rather than a formal application for funds, you access it by following these steps:
- Visit the official NCSC website.
- Navigate through the digital resources and guidance sections.
- Review the specific security advice that applies to your situation, such as remote work or asset protection.
