Since then the organisation has undergone a complete transformation and strategic review establishing itself as a hub of innovation and business improvement and currently delivers three Scottish Government resilience strategies. Working hand in hand with Police Scotland, Scottish Government, Scottish Fire and Rescue Service, major financial institutions, investors and private members, SBRC is a truly unique organisation combating all crimes and fraud against business.

SBRC has the responsibility of creating a secure environment where business can trade and prosper securely, regardless of size and sector. Due to its success through pioneering and dynamic services, SBRC has been used as a model to create the Lord Mayor’s “London Digital Security Centre” (LDSC) to safeguard economic wellbeing and reduce cyber-crime. Its creation was overseen and developed by Mandy and this support for business resilience has also immigrated to Norway.
