Will the First Minister confirm how many cyber attacks the Welsh Government was subjected to in each of the following years: 2015-16, 2016-17 and 2017-18 to date, to include how many were classified as a cyber security incident/actual security breach?

There are continual cyber attacks on our ICT system, including email services, but the design and alignment with wider UK government security standards provides Welsh Government with a high-level of protection and have not led to any known successful cyber compromises during 2015-16, 2016-17 and 2017-18 to date.
