Cyber Security Longitudinal Survey: Wave 3, 2024

<p>The <span>Cyber Security Longitudinal Survey</span>  (CSLS) helps us better understand cyber security policies and processes within medium and large businesses and high-income charities. It explores the links over time between these policies and processes and the likelihood and impact of a cyber incident.<span> The survey is commissioned by The Department of Science, Innovation and Technology as </span><span>part of the National Cyber Strategy. It aims to support the Government by providing evidence that can inform policies which help to make Britain a safer place to do business online. This is the third research year (or wave) of a multi-year study and the data were collected over 2023.

<p><span> The core objectives of the study are to: </span></p>
<ul>
<li>
<p><span>explore how and why UK organisations are changing their cyber security profile and how they implement, measure, and improve their cyber defences. </span></p>
</li><li>
<p><span>provide a more in-depth picture of larger organisations, covering topics that are lightly covered in the main <span>Cyber Security Breaches Survey</span> (also available from the UK Data Archive), such as corporate governance, supply chain risk management, internal and external reporting, cyber strategy, and cyber insurance. </span></p>
</li><li>
<p><span>explore the effects of actions adopted by organisations to improve their cyber security on the likelihood and impact of a cyber incident. </span></p>

网络安全纵向调查（Cyber Security Longitudinal Survey，简称CSLS）可帮助我们更深入地理解中型、大型企业及高收入慈善机构内部的网络安全政策与流程。该调查探究了此类政策与流程随时间推移与网络安全事件发生概率及影响程度之间的关联。本调查由英国科学、创新与技术部委托开展，作为《国家网络战略》的组成部分，其旨在为英国政府提供决策依据，助力制定相关政策，使英国的网络营商环境更为安全。本次为多年期研究的第三个年度（即第三波）调查，数据采集工作于2023年完成。

本研究的核心目标如下：
1. 探究英国各类组织如何及为何调整其网络安全态势，以及它们如何实施、评估并优化网络防御措施；
2. 为大型组织提供更为全面深入的画像，覆盖《网络安全事件调查（Cyber Security Breaches Survey，简称CSBS）》（亦可从英国数据档案馆获取）中涉及较少的主题，例如公司治理、供应链风险管理、内外部报告机制、网络安全战略以及网络安全保险等；
3. 探究组织为提升网络安全所采取的举措对网络安全事件发生概率及影响程度的作用效果。

本调查第一波与第二波的数据可分别通过英国数据档案馆获取，其存档编号依次为SN 8969与SN 9067。
