Article by Shiela Pulido Due to our dependence on the internet for digital transformation, most people suffer from the risks of cyberattacks. It is an even greater concern this year due to the trend of remote working and international business expansions. According to  IBM , the cost of cyber hacks in 2020 is about $3.86 million.

Stretched security teams have been challenged to rapidly deploy robust remote working facilities to maintain productivity. Most were writing the ‘pandemic playbook’ as they went along. Ironically, one of the few certainties of the situation was that cybercriminals would take advantage of disruption to escalate campaigns. In that sense, nothing changed, except that the opportunity was suddenly much greater. As a result, nine in ten security professionals surveyed by our Threat Analysis Unit said they were facing ...

Cloud security, new business metrics and future risks and priorities for 2019 and beyond ", a recap of the points I made. Cloud is the 'Default Model' for Business Cloud is now the default model for IT services in the UK; cloud ticks all the efficiency boxes successful business continually craves.
