Imagine watching your data being encrypted by ransomware. Customer data leaked. Operations halted. And then comes the fine up to £17.5 million or 4% of global turnover breaching UK regulations.
This isn’t a hypothetical scenario. According to the Gov.uk 43% of UK businesses experienced a cyber breach or attack in the past year, equating to over 612,000 businesses. For small to mid-sized enterprises (SMEs), the stakes are even higher: limited resources and weaker defences make them prime targets for ransomware, phishing, and supply chain attacks.
Failing to comply with cybersecurity regulations doesn’t just risk penalties. It threatens your reputation, customer trust and business continuity.
