Cyber-attacks – The Growing Threat to UK Businesses

Safeguarding your organisation’s data and IT infrastructure is crucial. With cyber threats evolving at an alarming pace, businesses of all sizes face an increased risk of data breaches, malware, and phishing attacks. Alcom IT is here to help you strengthen your defences and ensure your employees are well-prepared to identify and mitigate potential threats through our comprehensive cyber security services, including training for your entire workforce.

Cyber-attacks are a growing concern for companies across the UK. According to the Cyber Security Breaches Survey 2023, around 32% of businesses reported a cyber-attack in the last 12 months, with phishing attempts and ransomware being the most common threats. The consequences of these breaches can be severe, ranging from financial loss to reputational damage and legal implications. Given the frequency and potential impact of cyber incidents, implementing robust cyber security measures is not just a priority but a necessity.

By implementing multiple layers of protection, we ensure that threats are detected and neutralised quickly, preventing unauthorised access and minimising potential damage.

Cyber-attack Incident Response

In the event of a cyber-attack, having a rapid and effective response plan is essential to minimise damage.

Our expert team will work with you to contain the threat, mitigate its impact, and restore normal operations.

Our penetration testing services simulate real-world attacks to evaluate the strength of your defences, providing you with actionable insights to strengthen your security posture. We assess your entire IT environment to identify gaps and recommend remediation strategies.

Data protection Compliance and Regulatory Support

Maintaining compliance with data protection regulations, such as the UK GDPR, is essential for businesses of all sizes.

Cyber Security Training

We offer tailored training programmes to help your employees recognise and respond to cyber threats.

Strengthening Your Business Against Cyber Threats

Cyber criminals are working around the clock to exploit vulnerabilities, putting your business’s data and reputation at risk. The effects of a successful cyber-attack can be devastating, ranging from immediate disruptions such as encrypted data and locked systems to long-term damage that can erode customer trust and regulatory compliance. In the UK, around 40% of businesses report experiencing a cyber-attack each year, underscoring the importance of taking proactive measures.

At Alcom IT, we understand that no two businesses are the same. Our approach is tailored to fit the unique needs of your organisation, ensuring that you have the right defences in place to protect against the latest threats. Our services are designed to provide comprehensive protection from inside and out, combining state-of-the-art technology with expert support.

Reducing Your Business’s Cyber Risk

With an estimated 2.39 million instances of cyber-crime in the UK in 2023, costing over £4 million, businesses need to take proactive steps to protect themselves. Cyber criminals are becoming increasingly sophisticated, often targeting small and medium-sized enterprises due to perceived weaker security measures. By investing in employee training, businesses can create a strong first line of defence against cyber threats.

A robust solution from Alcom IT not only mitigates risks but also ensures compliance with data protection regulations, such as the UK GDPR. Demonstrating that your company has taken steps to educate staff on cyber security can reduce legal liabilities in the event of a data breach.
