North East Business Resilience Centre

The North East Business Resilience Centre (“NEBRC”) is a police-led, not-for-profit organisation that helps protect small to medium enterprises from online crime and fraud.

We are a collaboration between policing across the region, private sector business and academia and we are focused on educating and raising awareness of cyber security in the small business community.

We offer a free membership for businesses of any size and sector to help demystify the cyber security landscape and provide access to national intelligence data, free guidance, and affordable help to protect your business online.

The NEBRC are connected to two universities: Sheffield Hallam and Northumbria, and work with a talented team of ethical hacking students to deliver a range of cyber resilience services to businesses throughout the region.

Our trusted cyber security services have developed an ethical reputation, and we have formed a partnership network with the Cyber Essentials Certification to protect businesses from cyber risks.

The NEBRC also work very closely with the seven police forces in the region providing us with access to the latest local as well as national information on emerging cyber threats, criminal trends, best practice for cyber resilience and new technology to provide you with timely guidance to prepare and protect your business, staff and clients from cyber criminals.

We are now an established community resource where North East, Yorkshire and The Humber based organisations can trust to help guide and support them through their cyber security journey.

The NEBRC is also part of a National network of 9 Regional Centres across the country whose role is to deliver essential cyber resilience services, guidance and education. The network is also part of HM Government National Cyber Strategy.
