The Hacker's Guide to Policyland
summary
Overview of what UK government is actually doing: a new national cyber strategy with five pillars (technology security, organizational resilience, cyber ecosystem, international leadership, disrupt/deter), recent laws including the Telecoms Security Act and the Product Security and Telecommunications Infrastructure Act — PSTI Act signed yesterday — with an 18‑month rollout for consumer devices requiring no default passwords, vulnerability reporting and published support lifetimes. Upcoming NIS reform adds managed service providers and supply‑chain obligations, plus app store code of practice, enterprise software call‑for‑info and ongoing secondary regulations.
