The two security budgets quietly undermining each other

A mid-sized logistics company spends tens of thousands of pounds on a new cybersecurity platform. Firewalls. Multi-factor authentication. Endpoint protection. The IT team ticks every box on the audit checklist.

Cyber Security Is a Board-Level Issue

In our last post, we made the case that no business is too small to be targeted. The threat is real, it is indiscriminate, and SMEs are increasingly in scope, not despite their size, but because of it.
