Are people taking IT Compliance seriously yet?
On the 23rd March 2015 a report on Government Cyber Security was released by HM Government and Marsh, one of the UK’s leading insurance brokers and risk advisers, and it contained some alarming statistics…
“Last year 81% of large UK businesses and 60% of small companies suffered a cyber security breach”
“Cyber threats are estimated to cost the UK economy billions of pounds each year with the cost of cyber attacks nearly doubling between 2013 and 2014. “
