Solace Cyber, a Poole-based cyber security centre, has been recognised as an Assured Service Provider by the National Cyber Security Centre.

Gained under the Cyber Incident Response (Level 2) scheme, the accolade makes the company one of the first in the UK to attain Incident Response accreditation.

The NCSC’s Cyber Incident Response project looks to offer support to UK organisations in the event of a cyber-attack, recognising high-quality incident response providers who can offer external support and advice on how to manage and recover from cyber incidents.

It builds on the Level 1 scheme, which was developed to assure companies that have the capability to provide incident response services to nationally significant organisations such as regulated industries, central government, and critical national infrastructure.

Solace has a track record of helping UK companies to recover from ransomware attacks and data breaches, serving as representatives for international Loss Adjusters and Cyber Insurance companies.

Rowland Johnson, President of CREST said: “Congratulations to Solace for gaining NCSC Cyber Incident Response (Level 2) scheme Assured Service Provider status for its incident response services.

“This means Solace has been assessed as capable of supporting organisations with common cyberattacks, such as ransomware. It provides valuable assurance to buyers of the high quality of Solace’s incident response services.”
