The NDEC is a cyber-security centre of excellence, focusing on digital transformation in Operational Technology (OT). Our mission is to be the global leader in providing security solutions to organisations looking to better protect their OT network infrastructure. Using the capabilities the centre has to offer, the NDEC provides bespoke solutions to combat the threat of cyber-attacks on critical systems.
At the core of this facility is the Thales Cybels Lab, a virtualisation and simulation tool used to emulate cyber-attacks, map network infrastructures and create training exercises in a safe, secure and virtual environment.

Thales provides end-to-end cyber security for operational technology in Critical National Infrastructure. It can be broken down into four interlinked stages – Aware, Enact, Vigilant and Resilient, each of which are supported by a number of services designed to help organisations discover and resolve security weaknesses, and to protect them from current and emerging threats before they can do any damage.
