Discuss a requirement with UKSC →The purpose of the relationship is to create a clear route between professional education, sector insight and practical security consultancy.
Where appropriate, the organisations can jointly identify and develop opportunities, prepare proposals and presentations, and agree which organisation will lead and which will provide supporting expertise.
This means clients can access complementary capabilities without blurring the responsibilities of either organisation.
UKCTAG and UKSC remain separate organisations, with their own governance, finances, responsibilities and professional obligations.
The collaboration framework allows them to work strategically together while retaining that independence.
