Nominet Cyber?

An audit will handwave through people being flying everywhere first class as long as it's signed off appropriately. A forensic auditor will start looking into why the execs' families were flown first class too at company expense.

So I noticed a curious thing whilst watching Netflix's show about Formula 1. The team principle and pit boards had a 'Nominet Cyber' sponsorship on them-

Chief Executive Officer at Nominet, Russell Haworth remarked; “Our partnership with Rich Energy Haas F1 Team has natural synergies. Both organizations are highly innovative in their approach and we are delighted to be chosen to drive their cyber security strategy by utilising DNS to remove network threats and protect their intellectual property.

Not sure if that's something Nominet inherited when they bought CyGlass, but the terms of the 'patnership' might warrant closer inspection.. Especially as F1 sponsorship deals aren't usually cheap, and nor might be sending people to hospitality events at F1 races. Then again, last year probably had fewer opportunites to go spectate in person.
