Lot #1This work aims to examine and deliver a set of options that outline the core minimumAwarded

This work aims to examine and deliver a set of options that outline the core minimum

capacity and capability needed to provide an effective regulator under NIS for Road,

Rail and Maritime. Regulation of aviation under NIS is out of scope of this project.

This work will need to:

  • articulate the duties the regulator will need to fulfill, noting not only the changes

under the Cyber Security & Resilience (NIS) Bill, but the potential for changes to

designation thresholds that may increase the number of regulated operators or

bring future transport sub-sectors into scope.

  • examine how other cyber regulators operate and are adapting to legislative

changes and consider the benefits of enforcement delivered through a range of

delivery partners. This may include expanding the remit of other existing

regulators to include cyber security as well as delivering some duties through

commercial partners (such as audits).

Delivery: London
