GCHQ to offer British firms expertise in cybercrime
Some of the secret technologies created at the government's eavesdropping centre GCHQ are to be offered to private industry as part of cyber security strategy unveiled by ministers on Friday.

Ministers argue GCHQ's main priority will remain national security and the agency has insisted it will not be side-tracked.
