Sadly, the BFFF are hearing of more and more businesses who are falling victim to cyber-crime.

Official statistics show more than a third of small businesses suffered a cyber-attack last year and in February 2023 alone, there were 189 cyber-crime reports from organisations, of which 79.8% were from SME’s.

To combat this, the National Cyber Security Centre’s (NCSC) cyber security experts have launched two new flagship services designed to help millions of UK small businesses stay secure online and protect their livelihoods.

We would strongly urge members to make use of the Cyber Action Plan as well as the Check Your Cyber Security tools.

The Cyber Action Plan can be completed online in under 5 minutes and results in tailored advice for businesses on how they can improve their cyber security.

Check your Cyber Security, which is accessible via the Action Plan, can be used by any small organisation, and enables non-technical users to identify and fix cyber security issues within their businesses.

The NCSC has also refreshed their Board Toolkit resource, designed to help business leaders get to grip with the cyber security risks facing their organisation.

With nearly all businesses relying on data and technology, the toolkit emphasises how board members should treat cyber risks with the same prominence as financial or legal risks, as cyber-attacks can have severe impacts on an organisation’s ability to operate.

Whatever the size of your organisation, please do take the time to review all the resources and tools available to you on the NCSC website . We hope it never happens to you, but if you are well prepared, you will be glad you did.
