WhiteHawk Limited (ASX: WHK) ("WhiteHawk or "the Company"), the first global online cybersecurity exchange enabling small-to-medium businesses to take smart action against cybercrime and fraud, is pleased to announce a strategic partnership with the Cybercrime Support Network (CSN).

The CSN was established to give a voice to companies impacted by cybercrime and support a coordinated response from federal, state and local law enforcement responders managing cybercrime events. CSN is piloting US programs to utilize existing referral infrastructure to triage cybercrime reporting and response allowing these companies to report the crime and receive access to resources and support.

Through this partnership, WhiteHawk becomes the response arm for all small and midsize businesses (SMBs) that contact CSN in need of cybercrime and fraud response and mitigation services. WhiteHawk's cyber consultants connect companies to effective response services to mitigate the impact to their business and enable them to find and purchase products, via the WhiteHawk Exchange, to protect their business into the future.

"The Cybercrime Support Network understands the needs of small and midsize businesses as they navigate the new cyber threats. Partnering with WhiteHawk to support businesses during and after an incident will make our impact even stronger," said Kristin Judge, CSN CEO and President.

Terry Roberts, Executive Chair of WhiteHawk, commented, "We have to address the huge gap we have in both reporting online crime and fraud and effectively responding to and mitigating the impacts of cyber disruption to all. By putting this strategic partnership in place we are enabling both and most important of all preventing future criminal actions. Our online platform, patent pending artificial intelligence tool, known as the CyberPath, is accessible and open to all businesses in need."
