In this article, we explore why business continuity extends far beyond backups, using the potential AI bubble as a real-world example of how technology, supplier, and operational risks can disrupt business operations.

In this next topic in the cybersecurity awareness series, we look at cyber hygiene: the small, regular habits that help keep your personal and work digital life more secure. Quick takeaway Section Key message What it is Cyber hygiene is the routine care of your digital assets, including accounts, devices, apps, and information. Why it matters Small gaps, such as weak authentication or outdated software, combine to create easy opportunities for attackers. What to do Strengthen

Key Takeaway IT cost optimisation is about aligning technology with business value, not simply reducing spend. Unintentional redundancy occurs when duplicated capability is introduced and delivers no additional value. Redundant IT creates indirect cost and risk that often outweigh the direct costs of duplication (such as licensing). Unintentional redundancy is a primary target for cost optimisation, through governance, clear requirements, and structured decision-making. Redun

Cybersecurity can feel complex. There are many tools, systems, and controls designed to protect information, devices, and people. But one of the most important lines of defence is also one of the most familiar: you, the user. Security training and attack simulations help, but the real goal is awareness. When people understand common risks and build safe everyday habits, they help protect both their workplace and their personal digital lives. That is why we have started this c

Despite widespread Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) adoption, identity-based attacks continue to succeed. The reason is that many authentication methods still rely on mechanisms attackers can bypass. Phishing-resistant authentication addresses this and should now be a top priority for organisations. Quick Takeaways Authentication remains a primary attack path: Attackers target passwords, login prompts, and active sessions because they provide a direct route into business sy
