Artificial intelligence (AI) is rapidly reshaping the cybersecurity landscape across Ireland. While it's unlocking new efficiencies and accelerating innovation, it's also giving cybercriminals new evasive tools to launch faster and more sophisticated attacks. Across Ireland, organisations are navigating a new era of cyber risk defined by speed, sophistication, and AI. As Dell Technologies continues to work closely with Irish businesses to modernise their digital infrastructure, it's clear that cybersecurity must evolve in tandem, as a strategic enabler of trust and resilience. Threat actors are using AI to enhance ransomware, zero-day vulnerabilities, Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) all making advanced spear-phishing much harder to identify, outpacing conventional security measures. According to the latest Dell Technologies Innovation Catalyst Study, 84% of Irish organisations view security as a key part of their business strategy, yet many continue to struggle with balancing innovation and security. Almost all respondents (96%) admitted that integrating security into wider business strategies is proving difficult. These figures highlight that organisations must rethink their cybersecurity strategies to adopt proactive, intelligent, and resilient approaches that keep pace with the evolving threat environment. Here are five ways to stay resilient against cyber threats: 1. Adopt zero trust for AI Security As threat actors use AI to scout, steal credentials and adapt attack techniques, traditional perimeter-based defences fall short. That's why more Irish organisations are adopting a Zero Trust model built on the principle of "never trust, always verify" ensuring that every user, device, and application is continuously authenticated, regardless of location. The benefits are clear; the latest Innovation Catalyst Study revealed a 100% increase in confidence levels among Irish organisations that have adopted zero trust principles, underscoring its growing value as a security framework. By implementing zero trust principles, organisations can help reduce risk by continuously verifying every access request and implementing strict authentication processes. Using role-based access controls (RBAC) and network segmentation, organisations can minimise the risk of an attack and reduce the impact radius if an attack occurs. Zero trust is more than a security philosophy. It's a unified and adaptive strategy for identity and access management. Through a zero trust approach, organisations not only reduce their attack surface, but also strengthen their ability to detect, respond to and contain threats. 2. Reduce the attack surface In an environment where AI-powered threat actors are constantly probing for weaknesses, reducing the attack surface is a critical line of defence. Every exposed endpoint, unsecured API, or overlooked supply chain vulnerability represents an opportunity for adversaries to infiltrate systems, deploy malware and exfiltrate sensitive data. To mitigate these risks, Irish organisations should begin with assessing and understanding their attack surface and related vulnerabilities. From there, they should have a layered defence strategy focused on securing entry points and minimising exposure. This includes strengthening authentication, encrypting data, regularly testing for vulnerabilities and actively monitoring endpoints. Keeping systems patched and devices hardened further limits risks. By reducing the attack surface, organisations make themselves a harder target, thereby decreasing the likelihood of an attack. 3. Continuously detect and respond to threats AI-powered attacks are capable of mimicking legitimate behaviour and evading traditional security tools, and organisations need to combine advanced threat detection with rapid response capabilities. Leveraging AI and machine learning, organisations can monitor operational data, detect anomalies, and trigger automated responses in real time. This AI-powered threat...

Munster Technological University (MTU) hosted the Cybersecurity Smart Maritime Challenge 2025 in collaboration with Cyber Innovate, the Irish Naval Service and the National Maritime College of Ireland (NMCI) on Friday, 26th September. The event took place in the Cybersecurity Prototyping Lab in MTU's Bishopstown Campus in Cork, showcasing how Ireland's ports and harbours can be defended against evolving cyber threats. For centuries, Cork has been a safe harbour from storms, rough seas and pirates. In 2025, the definition of a safe harbour has expanded to include protection from digital attacks. This shift was brought into sharp focus during a live cybersecurity simulation, conducted using MTU's state-of-the-art Cyber Range infrastructure. The simulation, designed by Airbus, mirrored a real-world cyberattack on a maritime port. In the exercise, a hacker group paralysed a port's IT systems and disabled a ship at its entrance, effectively blocking all traffic. Four teams took part, featuring staff from the Irish Naval Service and the NMCI, alongside MTU researchers and students from Cyber Innovate. They were tasked with identifying the points of attack, regaining control of the vessel, and supporting Europol in apprehending the hacker group's leader. Irish ports are vital hubs for shipping and trade, making cybersecurity expertise essential to safeguarding national infrastructure. The challenge provided participants with practical, hands-on experience to develop skills that are directly relevant to addressing the growing cyber threats facing the maritime sector. "This collaboration between the Irish Navy, NMCI, maritime experts and cybersecurity specialists is essential to safeguarding Ireland's national security. This challenge highlights both the scale of the threat and the strength of the talent we are building in Ireland. Preparing for cybersecurity shock events before they happen is the only way to ensure our ports and maritime infrastructure remain resilient in an increasingly uncertain global landscape," said Dr Hazel Murray, Chair of Cybersecurity at Munster Technological University MTU is recognised as a leader in cybersecurity education, training, research and innovation. The university runs multiple programmes and initiatives, including Cyber Innovate, Cyber Skills, Cyber Explore, Cyber Resilience, Cyber Safety and Cyber Futures. Cork's reputation as Ireland's cybersecurity hub is strengthened by MTU's graduates, which has helped attract many national and international companies to the region. MTU also hosts the Cyber Range, a cutting-edge platform unique in Ireland. This allows simulated cyberattacks on virtual organisations in a safe environment. "At MTU, we are dedicated to advancing cybersecurity through cutting-edge education and research," said Dr George O'Mahony of MTU. "This state-of-the-art facility provides invaluable training for students, researchers and industry professionals, allowing them to build critical skills without risking real-world damage or outages." The Cybersecurity Smart Maritime Challenge underlined the critical importance of protecting Ireland's maritime sector from cyberattacks, particularly as the offshore renewable energy industry becomes a cornerstone of Ireland's energy future and a key enabler of EU climate change targets.

The following article of the Cybersecurity industry is: “Why Cloud Misconfigurations Could Undermine Cyber Resilience” by Francisco Ramirez de Arellano, Senior Vice President for Latin America, Tenable.

In this episode, Stephen Woods from the WA Department of Justice explores why cyber resilience is essential for protecting sensitive public data and services. He breaks resilience into four stages—anticipate, withstand, recover, and adapt—emphasising that cyberattacks are inevitable, but preparation and testing make the difference. From regional connectivity challenges to incident simulations like the Corporate Compromise Game, Stephen shows how planning, collaboration, and transparency strengthen response. He also highlights diversity as a superpower—with varied perspectives, cultural insights, and neurodiverse talent improving detection, decision-making, and innovation. His core message: resilience isn't just about technology, it's about people, culture, and trust.

AI-driven transformation is underway as over half of tech and media firms plan major organizational restructures to integrate artificial intelligence, despite the high failure rate of early pilot programs. Salesforce expects AI to handle 50% of service calls by 2027, while Business Insider is quietly using AI to draft articles. Fiverr's "AI-first" restructuring has led to a 30% workforce reduction, sparking backlash. The rapid shift reveals both opportunity and risk, especially as poor implementation and loss of customer trust threaten to undermine the promised benefits.Meanwhile, Microsoft is under fire from Consumer Reports for ending support for Windows 10 on October 14th, leaving hundreds of millions of devices potentially vulnerable. Many cannot upgrade to Windows 11 due to hardware limitations, and Microsoft's proposed $30/year fee for extended updates has drawn criticism. Managed service providers (MSPs) now face an uphill battle to communicate this change, mitigate client dissatisfaction, and navigate rushed hardware refreshes.Cyber resilience and AI are converging across the IT stack. N-able, Syncro, and LogicMonitor are rolling out AI-driven features such as anomaly detection, M365/Entra ID backups, and cross-cloud observability. Microsoft Research's open-source MCP Interviewer tool could open new service opportunities for validating AI infrastructure. The trend signals a shift from AI as novelty to AI as operational backbone — but with much of it still experimental, caution is advised.Finally, big questions loom: Is poor leadership being misdiagnosed as a failure of remote work? Can Oracle's $317B backlog — heavily reliant on OpenAI — actually deliver value? And if generative AI increases global GDP by trillions, who truly benefits — vendors or end users? At the grassroots level, students turning to AI for homework raises concerns about eroding critical thinking and long-term workforce preparedness. Four things to know today 00:00 Over Half of Tech Firms Plan Major Restructures to Embrace AI, Despite High Failure Rates05:28 Consumer Reports Urges Microsoft to Extend Windows 10 Support Beyond October 14 Deadline07:03 From Backup Anomaly Detection to MCP Reliability: AI and Cyber Resilience Are Converging in the IT Stack09:48 From Oracle's AI Gamble to Students Skipping Homework: Who Really Captures the Value of Technology? This is the Business of Tech.    Supported by: https://timezest.com/mspradio/https://cometbackup.com/?utm_source=mspradio&utm_medium=podcast&utm_campaign=sponsorship Webinar:   https://bit.ly/msprmail All our Sponsors: https://businessof.tech/sponsors/ Do you want the show on your podcast app or the written versions of the stories?

Montenegro's digital journey has been one of deliberate reconstruction and collaboration. In 2022, a major cyberattack exposed critical gaps in the country's digital infrastructure. The experience sent shockwaves through Montenegro's public administration and made it abundantly clear that preparedness on paper does not equal resilience in reality.  Instead of responding with short-term fixes, public institutions focused on long-term change. They initiated a wide-ranging transformation, strengthening cyber capabilities, forming new partnerships, and prioritising resilience not as an end goal, but as an everyday practice.  In this podcast episode, we take a privileged look at what that transformation felt like from the inside with Dušan Polović, Director General for Infrastructure, Information Security, Digitalisation and e-Services at the Ministry of Public Administration of Montenegro, and Milan Sekuloski, Senior Cybersecurity Expert at the e-Governance Academy.  Tune in!

What happens when a cybersecurity incident requires legal precision, operational coordination, and business empathy—all at once? That's the core question addressed in this origin story with Bryan Marlatt, Chief Regional Officer for North America at CyXcel.Bryan brings over 30 years of experience in IT and cybersecurity, with a history as a CISO, consultant, and advisor. He now helps lead an organization that sits at the intersection of law, cyber, and geopolitics—an uncommon combination that reflects the complexity of modern risk. CyXcel was founded to address this reality head-on, integrating legal counsel, cybersecurity expertise, and operational insight into a single, business-first consulting model.Rather than treat cybersecurity as a checklist or a technical hurdle, Bryan frames it as a service that should start with the business itself: its goals, values, partnerships, and operating environment. That's why their engagements often begin with conversations with sales, finance, or operations—not just the CIO or CISO. It's about understanding what needs to be protected and why, before prescribing how.CyXcel supports clients before, during, and after incidents—ranging from tailored tabletop exercises to legal coordination during breach response and post-incident recovery planning. Their work spans critical sectors like healthcare, utilities, finance, manufacturing, and agriculture—where technology, law, and regulation often converge under pressure.Importantly, Bryan emphasizes the need for tailored guidance, not generic frameworks. He notes that many companies don't realize how incomplete their protections are until it's too late. In one example, he recounts a hospital system that chose to “pay the fine” rather than invest in cybersecurity—a decision that risks reputational and operational harm far beyond the regulatory penalty.From privacy laws and third-party contract reviews to incident forensics and geopolitical risk analysis, this episode reveals how cybersecurity consulting is evolving to meet a broader—and more human—set of business needs.Learn more about CyXcel: https://itspm.ag/cyxcel-922331Note: This story contains promotional content. Learn more.Guest: Bryan Marlatt, Chief Regional Officer (North America) at CyXcel | On LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/marlattb/ResourcesLearn more and catch more stories from CyXcel: https://www.itspmagazine.com/directory/cyxcelLearn more about ITSPmagazine Brand Story Podcasts: https://www.itspmagazine.com/purchase-programsNewsletter Archive: https://www.linkedin.com/newsletters/tune-into-the-latest-podcasts-7109347022809309184/Business Newsletter Signup: https://www.itspmagazine.com/itspmagazine-business-updates-sign-upAre you interested in telling your story?https://www.itspmagazine.com/telling-your-story

Title: "Catching Up With Ken Munro After Infosecurity Europe 2025 — Hacking the Planet, One Car, One Plane, and One System at a Time"A Post–Infosecurity Europe 2025 Conversation with Ken MunroGuestsKen Munro Security writer & speakerhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/ken-munro-17899b1/HostsSean Martin, Co-Founder at ITSPmagazineWebsite: https://www.seanmartin.comMarco Ciappelli, Co-Founder, CMO, and Creative Director at ITSPmagazineWebsite: https://www.marcociappelli.com___________Episode SponsorsThreatLocker: https://itspm.ag/threatlocker-r974___________After a whirlwind week at Infosecurity Europe 2025, I had the chance to reconnect with Ken Munro from Pen Test Partners — a longtime friend, hacker, and educator who brings cybersecurity to life in the most tangible ways. From car hacking escape rooms to flight simulators in pubs, we talked about why touching tech matters, how myth-busting makes us safer, and how learning through play might just be the key to securing our increasingly complex world. Tune in, and maybe bring a cocktail.⸻There's something special about catching up with someone who's not just an expert in cybersecurity, but also someone who reminds you why this industry can — and should — be fun. Ken Munro and I go back to the early days of DEFCON's Aviation Village, and this post-Infosecurity Europe 2025 chat brought all that hacker spirit right back to the surface.Ken and his crew from Pen Test Partners set up shop next to the main Infosecurity Europe venue in a traditional London pub — but this wasn't your average afterparty. They transformed it into a hands-on hacking village, complete with a car demo, flight simulator, ICS cocktail CTF, and of course… a bar. The goal? Show that cybersecurity isn't just theory — it's something you can touch. Something that moves. Something that can break — and be fixed — before it breaks us.We talked about the infamous “Otto the Autopilot” from Airplane, the Renault Clio-turned-Mario Kart console, and why knowing how TCAS (collision avoidance) works on an Airbus matters just as much as knowing your Wi-Fi password. We also dug into the real-world cybersecurity concerns of industrial systems, electronic flight bags, and why European regulation might be outpacing the U.S. in some areas — for better or worse.One of the biggest takeaways? It's time to stop fearing the hacker mindset and start embracing it. Curiosity isn't a threat — it's a superpower. And when channeled correctly, it leads to safer skies, smarter cars, and fewer surprises in the water we drink or the power we use.There's a lot to reflect on from our conversation, but above all: education, community, and creativity are still the most powerful tools we have in security — and Ken is out there proving that, one demo and one pint at a time.Thanks again, Ken. See you at the next village — whichever pub, hangar, or DEFCON corner it ends up in.⸻Keywords: cybersecurity, ethical hacking, pen testing, Infosecurity Europe, embedded systems, car hacking, flight simulator, ICS security, industrial control systems, aviation cybersecurity, hacker mindset, DEFCON___________ResourcesLearn more and catch more stories from Infosecurity Europe 2025 London coverage: https://www.itspmagazine.com/infosec25Catch all of our event coverage: https://www.itspmagazine.com/technology-and-cybersecurity-conference-coverageWant to tell your Brand Story Briefing as part of our event coverage?

Senator Craughwell leads the charge to a secure digital future Ireland's digital progress has been extraordinary. From online banking and healthcare systems to remote learning and connected infrastructure, the nation has embraced digitalisation across every sector. However, this transformation has come at a cost. As our digital footprint expands, so too does our exposure to cyber threats. Cybersecurity is no longer just a technical issue. It is a public concern and a national responsibility. We often picture cyberattacks as distant or unlikely events, something that happens to big tech companies or foreign governments. Attacks in recent years have shown that Ireland is not immune. Irish institutions - such as the HSE in 2021 - have faced serious disruptions, but so too have countless smaller businesses. Many incidents never make headlines but the reality is that companies' systems, data, personal privacy, financial assets, and systems managed by IT and OT (operational technology) are under continuous threat. What makes these attacks so dangerous is not just their sophistication. It's how easily they succeed. In most cases, breaches begin with one thing: human error. It can be as simple as an employee opening a fraudulent email, a manager misunderstanding a digital risk, or a staff member who is unaware that their actions have consequences far beyond their screen. Awareness is the missing link Awareness is the critical missing link in our national defence. Most successful cyberattacks don't rely on elite hacking tools; they rely on people not being prepared. Attackers exploit gaps in understanding - gaps that exist in homes, schools, businesses and public services. Awareness needs to be treated as a core component of Ireland's cybersecurity response. Without it, no software or firewall can offer enough protection. Ireland's small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are particularly vulnerable. They make up most of the country's enterprises and employ the majority of our workforce. Yet, many of these organisations do not have dedicated cybersecurity teams or robust training in place. The same applies to charities, community organisations, and voluntary services - sectors that handle sensitive data and are crucial to local life but often lack the resources or know-how to defend against threats. The risk is real. The consequences are national. Partnered with CJHNetwork, Data Edge have participated in conducting cyber reviews across Ireland. We found that a number of SMEs within critical supply chains have already been targeted by cyberattacks. These organisations support navigation, satellite communication, and other essential infrastructure which are of strategic importance. This highlights the growing vulnerabilities in sectors vital to public safety and national services. Building national cyber resilience Cyber risk is not theoretical. It is here, it is growing, and it is reaching into the heart of our critical infrastructure. So, what must Ireland do? How do we build resilience before the next wave of attacks hits us harder? We need a coordinated national effort - one that combines public awareness, skilled training, and long-term investment. It should also ensure consistent funding and empower policy makers to deliver widespread public engagement. This includes strengthening support for SMEs and community organisations, expanding cybersecurity training and awareness across all levels of society, and building a skilled and diverse workforce through education, outreach, and accelerated recruitment. Ireland must also invest in the infrastructure, tools, and partnerships that will enable long-term resilience and readiness. Our active involvement as part of a national cybersecurity consortium includes participation in discussions at Leinster House and ongoing collaboration with policymakers, and we recognise that collective insights and local experience are key to shaping Ireland's cybersecurity landscape. Currently, a positio...

William Lyne of the UK's National Crime Agency joins us live at Infosecurity Europe to talk ransomware, AI threats, and the future of cybercrime disruption.When the UK's top cyber intelligence strategist sits down with you in London, you listen — and you hit record.At Infosecurity Europe 2025, the ITSPmagazine podcast team — Marco Ciappelli and Sean Martin — sat down with William Lyne, Deputy Director and Head of Cyber Intelligence at the UK's National Crime Agency (NCA). This is the guy who not only leads cyber strategy for the NCA, but has also represented the UK at the FBI in the U.S. and now oversees national-level ransomware disruption efforts. It's not just a conversation — it's a rare front-row seat into how one of the world's most serious crime-fighting agencies is tackling ransomware 3.0.The message? Ransomware isn't just a cyber issue. It's a societal one. And it's evolving faster than we're prepared for — unless we change the game.“It went from niche to national threat fast,” Lyne explains. “The tools were always there. It just took a few threat actors to stitch them together.”From banking malware to fully operational cybercrime-as-a-service ecosystems, Lyne walks us through how the underground economy has industrialized. Ransomware isn't just about tech — it's about access, scale, and business models. And most importantly, it's no longer limited to elite coders or closed-door Russian-speaking forums. The barrier to entry is gone, and the dark web is wide open for business.Sean brings up the obvious: “Why does this still feel like we're always reacting?”Lyne responds: “We've shifted. We're going after the ecosystem — the people, the infrastructure, the business model — not just the payload.” That includes disrupting ransomware-as-a-service, targeting marketplaces, and yes, investing in preemptive intelligence.Marco flips the script by comparing today's cyber landscape to something deeply human. “Extortion is nothing new — we've just digitalized it. This is human behavior, scaled by tech.”From there, the conversation takes a future-facing turn. Deepfakes, AI-powered phishing, the commoditization of generative tools — Lyne confirms it's all on their radar. But he's quick to note that cybercriminals aren't bleeding-edge innovators. “They adopt when the ROI is right. But AI-as-a-service? That's coming. And it will reshape how efficient — and damaging — these threats become.”And then the real insight lands:“You can't wait to be a victim to talk to law enforcement. We may already have access to the infrastructure. The earlier we hear from you, the better we can act — and fast.”That kind of operational openness isn't something you heard from law enforcement five years ago. It signals a cultural shift — one where collaboration is not optional, it's essential.William also highlights the NCA's partnerships with private sector firms, academia, and international agencies, including the Kronos operation targeting LockBit infrastructure. These kinds of collaborations prove that when information moves, so does impact.Why does this matter?Because while most cybersecurity media gets stuck in product buzzwords and vendor hype, this is the real stuff — how ransomware groups behave, how law enforcement thinks, and how society can respond. It's not theory. It's strategy, lived on the front lines.

In this episode, Amanda Finch, Chief Executive Officer of the Chartered Institute of Information Security, offers a perspective shaped by decades of experience in a field she has grown with and helped shape. She shares how cybersecurity has transformed from an obscure technical pursuit into a formalized profession with recognized pathways, development programs, and charters. Her focus is clear: we need to support individuals and organizations at every level to ensure cybersecurity is inclusive, sustainable, and effective.Amanda outlines how the Chartered Institute has developed a structured framework to support cybersecurity careers from entry-level to fellowship. Programs such as the Associate Development Program and the Full Membership Development Program help individuals grow into leadership roles, especially those who come from technical backgrounds and must now influence strategy, policy, and people. She emphasizes that supporting this journey isn't just about skills—it's about building confidence and community.A significant part of the conversation centers on representation and diversity. Amanda speaks candidly about being one of the only women in the room early in her career and acknowledges the progress made, but she also highlights the structural issues still holding many back. From the branding of cybersecurity as overly technical, to the inaccessibility of school programs for under-resourced communities, the industry has work to do. She argues for a wider understanding of the skills needed in cybersecurity—communication, analysis, problem-solving—not just coding or technical specialization.Amanda also addresses the growing threat to small and medium-sized businesses. While large organizations may have teams and resources to manage security, smaller businesses face the same threats without the same support. She calls for a renewed emphasis on community-based solutions—knowledge sharing, mentorship, and collaborative platforms—that extend the reach of cyber defense to those with fewer resources.In closing, Amanda urges us not to forget the enduring principles of security—know what you're protecting, understand the consequences if it fails, and use foundational practices to stay grounded even when new technologies like AI and deepfakes arrive. And just as importantly, she reminds us that human principles—trust, empathy, responsibility—are vital tools in facing cybersecurity's biggest challenges.___________Guest: Amanda Finch, CEO of the Chartered Institute of Information Security | https://www.linkedin.com/in/amanda-finch-fciis-b1b1951/Hosts:Sean Martin, Co-Founder at ITSPmagazine | Website: https://www.seanmartin.comMarco Ciappelli, Co-Founder at ITSPmagazine | Website: https://www.marcociappelli.com___________Episode SponsorsThreatLocker: https://itspm.ag/threatlocker-r974___________ResourcesLearn more and catch more stories from Infosecurity Europe 2025 London coverage: https://www.itspmagazine.com/infosec25Catch all of our event coverage: https://www.itspmagazine.com/technology-and-cybersecurity-conference-coverageWant to tell your Brand Story Briefing as part of our event coverage?

Defense Information Systems Agency networks are leveraging AI and sensors to boost real-time monitoring and synthetic traffic, as well as improve user experience and incident resolution. At AFCEA TechNet 2025 in Baltimore, DISA J6 Global Services Directorate Vice Director Brig. Gen. Michael Cornell discussed the impact of emerging technology on data tagging, diagnostics and interoperability of DOD systems. Ahead of his June retirement, Cornell also reflected on his proudest moments in of his decades-long career in uniform, particularly working alongside dedicated service members in operational environments.

Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) continue to be at a disadvantage when it comes to cybersecurity—not because the risks are unclear, but because the means to address them remain out of reach for many. In this episode, Professor Steven Furnell of the University of Nottingham highlights the real barriers SMEs face and shares the thinking behind a new approach: creating cybersecurity communities of support.The research behind this project, supported by the University and its partners, explores how different types of SMEs—micro, small, and medium-sized—struggle with limited time, budget, and expertise. Many rely on third-party service providers, but often don't have enough cybersecurity knowledge to evaluate what “good” looks like. It's not just a resource problem—it's a visibility and literacy problem.Furnell emphasizes the potential of automation to lift some of the burden, from automated updates to scheduled malware scans. But he also makes it clear that automated tools can't fully replace the need for human judgment, especially in scenarios like phishing or social engineering attacks. People still need cybersecurity literacy to recognize and resist threats.That's where the idea of communities of support comes in. Rather than each SME navigating cybersecurity alone, the goal is to create local or sector-based communities where businesses and cybersecurity practitioners can engage in open, non-commercial conversations. These communities would offer SMEs a space to ask questions, share challenges, and exchange practical advice—without pressure, cost, or fear of judgment.The initiative isn't about replacing regulation or mandating compliance. It's about raising the baseline first. Communities of support can serve as a step toward greater awareness and capability—something that's especially critical in a world where supply chains are interconnected, and security failures in one small link can ripple outward.The message is clear: cybersecurity isn't just a technical issue—it's a social one. And it starts by creating room for dialogue, connection, and shared responsibility. Want to know what this model could look like in your community?

How prepared is your business for a ransomware attack? Not just to prevent it, but to continue operating when it happens. In this episode, I sit down with Trevor Dearing, Director of Critical Infrastructure at Illumio, to discuss the latest findings from their global ransomware report and what they reveal about cyber resilience. Trevor shares insight from a survey of more than 3,000 organisations across multiple sectors. The most concerning figure is that 58 percent of those impacted by ransomware were forced to halt operations. That number has risen sharply from 43 percent just two years ago. Despite this, many businesses in the UK still avoid reporting attacks, often due to fears around reputational damage or potential retaliation. Trevor explains why that reluctance is misguided and how public support, improved infrastructure, and more explicit government guidance could encourage more transparency. We also explore the rise of containment as a more practical and cost-effective approach than prevention alone. Rather than trying to stop every attack at the perimeter, organisations are learning how to isolate and limit damage quickly. Trevor explains how zero trust architecture, microsegmentation, and one-click containment tools are being used to keep systems operational even during an incident. Only 13 percent of organisations believe their cyber resilience exceeds what is required. Trevor helps us understand why this number remains low and where organisations should focus to shift from vulnerability to resilience. From evolving regulations to future applications of AI in security, this conversation covers what leaders need to know if they prepare for the next generation of cyber threats.
