United Kingdom: Announced Cyber Security and Resilience Bill

On 17 July 2024, the Cyber Security and Resilience Bill was announced in the King's Speech. The Bill aims to introduce new cybersecurity measures by updating the legacy regulatory framework. It would expand the scope of regulation to protect a broader range of digital services and supply chains, thereby empowering regulators to ensure essential cyber safety measures are implemented. Additionally, the Bill would mandate increased incident reporting to provide the government with better data on cyber attacks.
