- The coronavirus crisis has created a new situation worldwide. Organizations have been forced to reduce their staff at the workplace. As a result, they have greatly expanded their use of digital platforms, remote access, cloud services and connectivity. These have also expanded their cyber risk. The cyber industry has a lot to offer in terms of reducing this risk. Some of them have
reduced prices or even offered services for free, in order to help customers in this time of need. - In order to help reduce the aggregate cyber risk in the nation, the Israel National Cyber Directorate (INCD) is endeavoring to facilitate a “meeting ground” between organizations seeking to mitigate their coronavirus related cyber-risk, and cybersecurity vendors (herein: the “marketplace”).
- The marketplace will allow vendors to present cybersecurity products and services on a dedicated page in the INCD website, which are particularly relevant to the current coronavirus period. The criteria for this are listed in this document.
