The UK government has recently announced an ambitious plan to use AI
to modernise public services1. They are creating a suite of AI tools
called "Humphrey" that will help civil servants work faster and more
efficiently2.
The Global Cybersecurity Outlook
20251, published by the World Economic Forum in
collaboration with Accenture, highlights a widening gap in cyber
resilience between SMEs and larger organizations.
Only 14% of organizations are confident they have the necessary
people and skills to address cybersecurity challenges effectively.
Many SMEs lack the resources for robust cybersecurity, often relying
on basic tools that leave them particularly vulnerable, especially
within interconnected supply chains.
While 78% of private sector leaders believe that cyber and privacy
regulations help reduce risk, 69% find these regulations overly
complex or struggle with ensuring third-party compliance.
