Cyber security is more important than ever

In a time when the Covid-19 pandemic has seen our personal and professional lives so greatly disrupted, and with economic conditions so challenging, why should businesses invest precious time and resources in bolstering their cyber security?  

For one, the way we work is changing. In June an all-time high 38 per cent of employees worked exclusively from home, opening up a whole new set of vulnerabilities.

For another, the pandemic has caused a significant shift to on-line commerce and social interaction. At the same time, consumers are becoming increasingly savvy and better aware of their ‘digital footprint’.  

With the advent of General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), personal data, privacy and informed consent are much more widely understood now.
