Rising numbers of homeworkers and a focus on digitisation during the Covid-19 pandemic have left companies increasingly vulnerable to cybercrime.  The Government’s Cyber Security Breaches Survey 2021 shows that four in ten businesses have fallen victim to cyber-attacks in the past 12 months, costing an average of £8,460.  As more companies embrace hybrid working in the long-term and cyber threats become increasingly sophisticated, it’s essential companies take steps to protect themselves.
