\t\t\t\t\t\t\tThe Ministry of National Security is advising stakeholders and businesses that the National Cybersecurity Unit [NCU] is \u201cbeginning the distribution of emails this week for Bermuda\u2019s inaugural National Cybersecurity Risk Assessment.\u201d
\nA Government spokesperson said, \u201cStakeholders and businesses that receive an email are asked to complete the assessment by 30 June 2026.
\n\u201cThe information collected will help guide the next phase of Bermuda\u2019s cybersecurity planning and support the development of an updated National Cybersecurity Strategy.
\n\u201cThe assessment is a jurisdiction-wide exercise to gather current risk information from across the public and private sectors.\u201d
\nMinister Weeks stated, \u201cThis National Cybersecurity Risk Assessment is an important national exercise. It will help Government gather current information from across the public and private sectors and guide the next phase of Bermuda\u2019s cybersecurity planning.
\n\u201cCybersecurity affects Government, businesses, public services, personal information and the wider community. I strongly encourage all stakeholders and businesses that receive an email from the National Cybersecurity Unit to complete the assessment by 30 June 2026.\u201d
\nThe Government spokesperson said, \u201cThe NCU is distributing the assessment by email this week, and each participating organisation will receive a referenced email that is unique to that organisation.
\n\u201cEmails should not be shared outside of the organisation.
\n\u201cIf an individual receives an email and is not the correct person for their organisation, they are asked to contact cybersecurity@gov.bm so the email direction can be corrected.
\n\u201cIf an organisation has not received an email by 7 May 2026 and wishes to contribute, it should send a request to cybersecurity@gov.bm.\u201d
\nMinister Weeks added, \u201cGovernment is acting now because the country cannot afford delay. Cybersecurity requires structure, urgency and informed action, and this assessment is part of that work.
\n\u201cThe more complete the participation, the clearer the picture Bermuda will have as we prepare the next phase of our national cybersecurity planning.
\n\u201cI thank all participating organisations in advance for taking the time to assist with this important work.\u201d<\/p>\n
