What doesn’t tend to make the national news, however, is the number of SMEs and individuals who fall prey to cyber-attacks throughout the year. Businesses that struggle to recover after their bank accounts are hacked, who have to repair damage to their PCs, who have lost or had their valuable data corrupted, whose identities have been stolen and whose businesses and reputations have been damaged to the tune of thousands of pounds.”
