Opportunity overview

Purchase of Cyber attack insurance and resilience response. The insurance cover is for both public liability indemnity cover and also response resilience. Note - This is being recorded as a Direct Award as a mechanism for completing this award, however this has been sourced competitively, using Marsh as our contracted broker.
