In an era of escalating cyber threats, knowing who to trust when a breach occurs is critical. That’s why Trend Micro is proud to be officially recognised by the UK’s National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC) as a certified Cyber Incident Response (CIR) provider at the Standard Level, following rigorous assessment through CREST.
This achievement formally places Trend on the NCSC’s list of trusted Incident Response providers, ready to assist UK organisations facing cyber incidents categorised as levels 3, 4 and 5, including targeted ransomware attacks, data breaches, and internal compromise.
But this certification is not just about Incident Response. It’s a validation of our ability to help customers minimise their overall cyber risk exposure: before, during and after an incident.
Why NCSC CIR Standard Level Certification Matters
The NCSC CIR scheme helps UK organisations identify trusted partners when navigating the aftermath of a cyber attack. Certification at the Standard Level confirms that Trend Micro has the technical expertise, response capabilities and governance processes to deliver professional support during serious, but not nationally critical, cyber incidents.
From a customer’s perspective, this means you’re working with a provider whose methods, tools and personnel have been independently verified and nationally recognised. It’s not just reassurance. It’s resilience, embedded in your supply chain.
Reducing Cyber Risk Exposure, Not Just Reacting to Threats
Incident Response is not a standalone service. It’s a key part of a broader strategy to reduce your organisation’s cyber risk exposure.
Trend Micro takes a proactive approach, combining:
- Threat detection and attack surface visibility through Trend Vision One™
- Root cause analysis, forensic investigation, and post-incident review
- Expert guidance to prevent repeat incidents and improve resilience
Whether we’re working with long-standing customers or new organisations seeking immediate support, our goal is the same: to contain threats quickly, limit business disruption, and equip you with the insights to reduce future exposure.
Being added to the NCSC’s CIR provider list demonstrates that we can be trusted to deliver not only rapid response, but also strategic risk reduction. It reflects our long-standing commitment to helping organisations across the UK build cyber resilience in the face of increasing threat complexity.
