Audit every MP and Lord to check on the Cyber Security of their office

Closed 41 signatures

What the petition asks

In the light of claims made by some MPs on twitter that they have shared their computer password with their office team we believe there is a major cyber security risk throughout the Palace of Westminster.

We understand that the rules set out for employees in Westminster make it clear that passwords should not be disclosed to other people. However the tweets referred to above indicate that at least 2 MPs have failed to follow these rules.
