The figure was revealed by Maude in the opening dinner of the IA14 cyber security summit in a speech, mentioning it as evidence of the success of the CISP initiative. “Cyberspace is just too large for practically any organisation to get vision on all that is happening and so there’s a huge demand to pool our advice for common gain. CISP empowers government and company associates to swap info on risks and vulnerabilities as they happen in real time,” Maude said.” Every day government and business partners notify members of approximately 215,000 abused IP addresses, so they are sometimes blocked or coped with. The key of its own success really is easy. It is about trust. CISP works because it’s government participation, but it is company-led.
CISP is an info-sharing initiative established by the government in March 2013, which is now managed by the United Kingdom ‘s recently established Computer Emergency Response Team (CERT).
Despite Maude’s remarks many business specialists have challenged CISP’s effectiveness in helping small to moderate -businesses (SMBs). Maude said the government has started a tide of SMB-focused initiatives, including the recently established Cyber Essentials scheme, to help smaller companies deal with cyber threats.

The Cabinet Office is among many government departments working to enhance the cyber security in the UK. The GCHQ revealed intellectual property and new risk wisdom -sharing initiatives at IA14.
