Halcyon Anti-Ransomware Platform
- The Common Services Agency (more commonly known as NHS National Services Scotland) (NSS)
Procurement identifier (OCID): ocds-h6vhtk-05d86c
Description
The NHS and NSS have invested in and deployed a range of cyber security tools across NHS boards through the Cyber Centre of Excellence (CCoE). These tools work together to reduce the risk and impact of cyber-attacks. While this approach has been successful and adds value, the residual risk is still high due to the nature of ransomware attacks:
- Existing tools by their nature remediate reactively once they detect an attack to contain it, and
- The risk of data being stolen prior to its encryption is now equal to - if not greater than - the encryption of the data itself.
