NCSC Warns of 50% Rise in Cyber Attacks: Is Your Business Ready?

The UK’s National Cyber Security Centre has issued a stark warning: “highly significant” cyber-attacks have risen by 50% in the past year. That means a new nationally significant incident hits every other day.

It’s not just governments being targeted - ransomware gangs are hitting everyone from small businesses to large organisations. As our dependence on tech deepens, so does our vulnerability.

The message from NCSC is clear: assume you’re next. Ask yourself: if your systems went dark tomorrow, could you recover?

At Forensic Control, we’ve seen first-hand how unprepared organisations suffer most. It’s not only about financial loss but lasting reputational damage.

Now is the time to test your defences, back up your data, and rehearse your response. The faster you can respond, the less impact an attack will have.

Because in cybersecurity, hope isn’t a strategy. Preparation is.
