Sharing files with the National Resilience Extranet

HITS users can share files classified up to RESTRICTED using the National Resilience Extranet (NRE). The NRE is a complementary component of the Civil Contingencies Secretariat's Resilient Telecommunications Programme. More information about the NRE is available by clicking here.
