Clive’s weekly Cyber Security roundup – I’m back!

I have been on leave for the past two weeks – so if you needed your cyber-news fix you needed to go directly to SmartThinking.Solutions, as I kept the stories up to date there, whilst I was away.

Now I am back, I will be posting the weekly digests here again.


Since late last year we have been planning a Cyber Security Master Class for businesses, and started to promote it and take bookings for it last week. Today the NCSC has issued guidance for organisations to improve their cyber security in the light of what they see as a real threat. Our Master Class will help you improve your cyber-security – and the early birds can get a free seat at the table – after that there is charge. Don’t miss out!

This is a weekly round-up of the articles from Smart Thinking Solutions, our specialist cybersecurity, governance and compliance web site.

The articles are mostly quick reads to give you an overview of the cybersecurity threat landscape facing businesses today, with links to the sources. Many of the posts have action points or top tips to help you navigate these threats to your organisations.

Sometimes they are just there to make you smile!
