Today the U.K.’s National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC) announced it had migrated all of its device-related content to a new format intended to make it easier to configure the security of this equipment. As the NCSC notes, the format is intended to avoid confusion about the kinds of devices being referred to, clarifying that it’s a “one stop shop for device security.” The NCSC adds that some of the specialized content in the guidance includes information on purchasing devices and using obsolete products, adding that it’s working on more specialized content for the overarching guidance. The NCSC also reports it plans to make some minor updates to its Platform Guides, which include platforms like Android and Windows, to take into account any major developments in those products from the last year, and relaunch its Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) guidance, which will take into account lessons learned within government over the last year and build on the update from last summer. Access the guidance at the NCSC.
