Early Warning is a free service by the NCSC for all organisations to spot malicious activity in their information feed, using IP addresses and domain names. You’ll receive a Daily Threat Alert and Weekly Threat Alert if anything is detected or not. Then your organisation can investigate the issue. This will enhance your security and alert you before an incident becomes a much bigger issue.
