The Offensive Cyber Working Group (OCWG)

The Offensive Cyber Working Group (OCWG) is formed of researchers examining the role of offensive cyber from an interdisciplinary perspective, with a focus on those who reside in the UK, or work on the UK. We are independent and all work as volunteers to examine how offensive cyber is both sharing UK capabilities, those internationally, as well as the impact of offensive cyber upon defence.

We will soon be releasing more information about our plans for 2027 – so keep a look-out for more information soon!

We encourage engagement with practitioners, government, think tanks, and industry to work with us. If you wish to get in touch, please either go to our contact page, email steering@offensivecyber.org, or get in touch with Dr Neil Ashdown directly.
