UK appoints new commander of National Cyber Force
The UK National Cyber Force has a new commander, its third since 2020, succeeding Air Vice-Marshal Tim Neal-Hopes; identity not yet avowed.
The United Kingdom's National Cyber Force has changed commanders, with the new leader's identity not yet formally avowed pending security considerations. The new commander is the third since the force was established in 2020, following James Babbage (GCHQ) and Air Vice-Marshal Tim Neal-Hopes (armed forces), both of whom have now completed their tenure. The NCF consolidates UK offensive cyber capabilities under a joint defense-intelligence partnership including GCHQ, MI6, and Dstl, with funding committed to 2030 and a permanent headquarters at Samlesbury progressing as scheduled.
