Tackle growing threats head-on

According to The Department for Science, Innovation and Technology (DSIT)’s 2023 Cyber Security Breaches Survey, 79 per cent of UK businesses – and 83 per cent of charities – faced a phishing attack in the last 12 months. This attack vector was also considered the most disruptive type of attack by 59 per cent of the UK businesses – and 64 per cent of the charities – that have faced one in the last year.

What’s more concerning is the apparent lack of organisational readiness revealed by the study. A meagre 19 per cent of businesses and 16 per cent of charities have conducted phishing simulation exercises, leaving them vulnerable to increasingly sophisticated phishing attacks. Only 48 per cent of organisations maintain an agreed-on response protocol too, demonstrating the UK’s loosening grip on anti-phishing measures.

But with the growth of AI-powered scams and geographical disparity of modern workforces — not to mention catastrophic consequences of a breach — maximising security posture has never been so important.
