UK businesses are not dealing with a theoretical threat. In the government's 2025 survey, 43% of businesses and 30% of charities said they'd experienced a cyber security breach or attack in the previous 12 months, and the cost to UK businesses in 2024 was estimated at £64 billion Government Cyber Security Breaches Survey 2025. For […]
A client rings after a breach story hits the news and asks the same awkward question every MSP hears at some point, are we exposed too? That call usually comes after an email account has been reused, a password has leaked somewhere the business never watches, or a helpdesk ticket has hinted at strange login […]
A lot of providers still hear the same line from clients with Ubuntu or Debian servers. “We're on Linux, so we're less of a target.” That belief used to buy some comfort. It doesn't buy much now. For MSPs, hosting firms, telecom providers, and IT resellers, security in Linux has moved from a niche technical […]
A client rings after seeing another politically motivated cyber attack in the news. They're not asking about ransomware this time. They want to know whether their business could be targeted because of who they serve, what sector they're in, or what issue they're seen to represent. That question matters because hacktivism sits in an awkward […]
A client rings after reading about another well-known breach and asks the question every reseller hears sooner or later. Could this happen to us? That's usually the moment when the conversation stops being abstract. It's no longer about a multinational retailer on the news. It's about a local accountancy firm, a manufacturer with a small […]
XDR, or Extended Detection and Response, is a cybersecurity approach that unifies security data from multiple sources like endpoints, networks, and cloud services to detect and respond to threats faster. In the UK, the XDR market is projected to grow from USD 1.6 billion in 2025 to USD 5.2 billion by 2031, at a 21.8% […]
A lot of service providers are dealing with the same awkward client conversation. A customer calls in a panic because something feels wrong. There's no ransom note. Servers are still running. Staff can log in. Backups look intact. At first glance, it doesn't look like a major cyber incident at all. Then someone spots unusual […]
A client phones after seeing another breach in the news. The question is usually simple. “Could this happen to us?” What they're really asking is whether their business could wake up to stolen credentials, exposed documents, and a ransom demand backed by a public threat. That's the point many service providers still miss. Ransomware isn't […]
A familiar sales call is happening in MSPs, telecom resellers, and IT support firms every week. A client sees another breach in the news, forwards the headline, and asks a simple question. “Are we exposed?” If your answer is still based on a manual check, a best guess, or a vague reassurance, you're leaving both […]
If you run an MSP, IT support firm, hosting business or cyber consultancy, you already deal with messy data. Support logs, API payloads, email headers, CSV exports, vulnerability reports. Most of it only becomes commercially useful once someone or something turns it into a format a business can act on. That's why the question what […]
