Following a recent series of high-profile UK cyber attacks, cyber-leads and heads of many UK organisations across all sectors have been prompted to question how they can better shield themselves from both external cyber threats and human error.

PureCyber was proud to host an insightful roundtable in collaboration with Insider Media Wales, alongside many of our valued partners to discuss the issues surrounding organisational cyber security.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is transforming business operations. However, the benefits come with a growing set of cyber security challenges. As organisations integrate AI into their day-to-day operations, the absence of a formal AI use policy can lead to significant security vulnerabilities, compliance failures, and reputational damage.

EDR, XDR…MXDR - What do they all mean? Which solution is right for you?

We explore the acronyms and break down exactly what you need to know about endpoint detection and response - because as cyber threats continue to grow increasingly sophisticated, traditional security tools are in many cases, no longer providing adequate protection.

As the UK manufacturing sector continues to adapt to an AI-driven industrial environment, it is simultaneously confronted by a growing and evasive set of new cyber threats. While the use of artificial intelligence can unlock greater productivity, predictive capabilities and in some cases overhaul operational efficiency, it also introduces a range of new vulnerabilities that malicious actors are eager to exploit.

If not carefully managed, LLMs and AI chatbots can expose your organisation to serious risks - ranging from data leaks to sophisticated phishing attacks. The same qualities that make these systems so flexible and useful; open-ended interaction, fast access to information, and wide-ranging integrations, can also create significant blind spots.

We were delighted to welcome The Rt Hon Pat McFadden MP, Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster and Minister for Intergovernmental Relations, to PureCyber’s Cardiff headquarters this week for a visit that underscored the UK’s growing emphasis on cyber security and digital resilience.

Cyber risk is no longer a hypothetical concern for the accountancy sector; it’s a very present and ongoing threat. The financial and reputational impact of a single breach can be catastrophic, especially in an industry where trust is paramount. We’ve outlined 6 critical strategies for ensuring a robust cyber security posture within your organisation.

PureCyber’s recent webinar on Threat Exposure Management (TEM) shed light on how businesses can uncover hidden digital vulnerabilities and manage them with precision. Far from being just another layer of defence, TEM offers operational clarity, proactive protection, and demonstrable return on investment - the ability to "see the unseen" has become a critical differentiator in cyber security strategy.

Having cyber security embedded into the culture of your organisation is crucial, however, even the most sophisticated technology cannot protect against one of the most common vulnerabilities: human error. Our latest article explores how consistent, human-focused cyber security training can transform staff from potential risks into a strong first line of defence.

The financial sector, like many others, is undergoing a period of major digital transformation. Our latest article looks at how Identity and Access Management (IAM) is central to this challenge. Governing how digital identities are verified, what resources they can access, and playing a crucial role in protecting against cyber threats, reducing fraud, and ensuring regulatory compliance.

As manufacturers embrace digital transformation, they face a growing wave of cyber threats targeting outdated systems and complex supply chains. In this article, we explore how one manufacturing client strengthened their cyber resilience through tailored penetration testing, uncovering critical vulnerabilities and enhancing both compliance and operational continuity.

With access to vast troves of sensitive client data - ranging from intellectual property and financial records to confidential litigation strategies - the legal sector presents an attractive opportunity for threat actors. We examine a case study of one of our law firm clients who successfully used our TEM service to identify and mitigate critical vulnerabilities - transforming their security posture and reducing their risk profile significantly.

The recent cyber attack on Marks & Spencer has exposed a growing and dangerous trend in the cyber security threat landscape - SIM-swap fraud. This type of attack, which manipulates mobile identity verification systems, is increasingly being used to bypass multi-factor authentication (MFA) and access sensitive business infrastructure.

Two of Britain’s most recognisable retail brands, Marks & Spencer and the Co-op, recently found themselves on the front lines of the UK’s growing cybercrime crisis. As cyber attacks targeting the retail sector continue to escalate in both frequency and complexity, the responses from these organisations have provided a revealing case study in cyber security crisis management.

The retail industry continues to face unprecedented cyber threats in 2025. As digital transformation accelerates, retailers find themselves increasingly targeted by sophisticated cybercriminal groups with our recent threat intelligence indicating that in the UK specifically, ransomware attacks on retailers surged by an alarming 74.71% in the first quarter alone.

Looking at the most recent findings from the 2025 Cyber Security Breaches Survey, we’re taking a deeper dive into the decline of pen-testing among educational institutions. Breaking down exactly what a pen-test is and highlighting the value regular pen-testing can bring to educational institutions.

The legal sector is considered one of the most high value targets for cyber criminals looking to gain access to, and exploit the wealth of sensitive data that firms in the sector often handle, often alongside vast amounts of money related to ongoing cases. In an industry with high rewards and low barriers to entry, cyber criminals have the legal sector firmly in their sights...

In our newest article we look into the recent findings from the governments Cyber Security Breaches Survey 2025 - highlighting the prevalence of cyber security breaches and attacks over the past 12 months, and breaking down the most common threat trends across the sector, as well as looking at the methods most commonly being employed by cyber criminals to target institutions operating in education.

Industry 4.0 was all about automation and technological integration - 5.0 looks to build on these advancements, offering a more human-centric, sustainable and resilient approach, whilst refining how we as humans interact and operate alongside mass, technological and robotic integration.

In an industry as diverse and multi-layered as manufacturing, supply chains can often be vast and complex networks of suppliers and sub-contractors. This already presents a range of logistical and supervisory challenges to most organisations operating in the sector, however one of the biggest threats to your supply chain’s resilience is a weak, underprepared and neglected cyber security strategy.
