Over recent months, ransomware campaigns, supply chain breaches, and phishing-led credential theft have surged across the UK’s healthcare industry. From NHS contractors to patient data platforms, adversaries are exploiting both technological and operational weaknesses in what remains one of the nation’s most critical infrastructures. We take a look at some of the most common threat vectors, and how organisations in the sector can build their cyber resilience.

Microsoft has confirmed that Windows 10 will reach the end of support on 14 October 2025.

We take a detailed look at what this means for UK organisations who still operate with Windows 10 devices - and what steps they can take to mitigate any cyber security risks that may arise as a result of the upcoming end-of-support deadline.

For cyber attackers, sport represents the perfect storm: immense volumes of personal and financial data, high-profile brands, emotionally invested fans, and the pressure of time-critical events. In this article we look at how cyber attacks have effected a range of sports, from football and rugby to cricket and athletics - breaking down some real world case studies and highlighting the outcomes of each breach.

We’re delighted to share some exciting news - BGF has won the Private Equity/Venture Capital Deal of the Year at the Insider Media Wales Dealmakers Awards for their investment in PureCyber Limited.

Our latest article looks at a range of detailed case studies - from the recent Collins Aerospace cyber attack causing disruption across UK and European airports, to the 2018 British Airways data breach that forced the ICO to issue it's largest financial penalty to date - highlighting the critical steps organisations operating in the sector must take to protect their supply chain networks & operations.

Organisations today are much more than standalone entities. They are entangled in networks of suppliers, subcontractors, cloud-providers, logistics partners, and third-party software vendors. This interconnectedness provides efficiency, flexibility, and scale - but it also creates multiple additional attack surfaces. This article looks at a detailed case study - highlighting the common real-life attack methods employed by cyber criminals who target organisational supply chains.

Housing associations and public housing authorities are increasingly in the crosshairs of cyber criminals, driven by the high value of tenant data, the essential nature of housing services, and the limited resources many providers can dedicate to defending against advanced threats. In this latest article we look at the current cyber threat landscape of the sector and highlight the critical steps organisations in the sector must take to protect their tenants data.

We examine four common cyber incident scenarios that organisations face today. For each, we explain the risks, the methods attackers use, and how PureCyber’s incident response specialists would act to detect, contain, and remediate the threat. Exploring how a well-prepared Incident Response (IR) plan, combined with 24/7 monitoring and expert support, is a crucial safeguard against the range of cyber risks that exist to your business.

In cyber security, even the most robust technical defences can be undermined by a single successful social engineering attack. In this article we look at a minute by minute breakdown of how PureCyber’s Security Operation Centre acted swiftly and decisively to shut down an imminent threat to one of our clients with the help of our internal MXDR platform and the vigilant work of our expert 24/7 SOC team.

Supply chains have evolved into vast digital ecosystems that are every bit as critical to business continuity as the physical assets within a business’s operational network. The unfortunate truth is that they are also among the most fragile. Attackers increasingly look outward rather than inward, identifying overlooked suppliers, under-secured subcontractors, and vulnerable third-party platforms as convenient entry points.

Penetration testing is a simulated cyber attack performed by ethical hackers to identify and exploit vulnerabilities in an organisation’s digital systems, applications, and processes. In this latest article we look in detail at the process used in a pen-test including a step-by step, real-world timeline simulation of how a pen-test could look.

Your organisation has a fire safety drill. You’ve rehearsed it, understood it and know what to expect - can you say the same for your cyber? A well-designed and consistently rehearsed incident response plan forms the backbone of organisational resilience. It ensures that when a breach occurs, your teams know exactly what to do, who to inform, and how to act in a way that minimises damage and accelerates recovery.

2025 has become a defining year for the UK retail sector, revealing the true scale and sophistication of modern cyber threats. The aftermath of a string of attacks has sent shockwaves through the industry, and beyond. Our latest article covering the UK retail sector cyber crisis looks at exactly what happened, the threat actors involved, their methodology and the outcomes of the recent investigations taking place.

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.
