The Arora Ball raised a whopping total of £1.5 million for these charities. 🥳

It was a pleasure to be invited for a second year.

Let's talk QR codes!

Did you know QR codes are increasingly being used in open spaces as a form of cyber attack?

QR codes are used everywhere, to order in a restaurant, to pay for parking at car parks, to authenticate into an account. However, not all of these are legitimate.

A fake QR code sticker can be placed over a legitimate one (like at a parking meter) to redirect you to a malicious website.

QR codes are also used in phishing emails (also known as 'quishing') as not all security tools are designed to scan the image to detect a threat.

Cyber attacks are becoming more and more advanced, and we must stay vigilant to all the methods cyber criminals are using to exploit users.

It's Cyber Security Awareness month!

To kick things off...

Are you prepared for Microsoft's MFA switch on?

Microsoft are enforcing MFA on all key accounts by 15th October.

We've always advised this is an absolute minimum for all accounts.

To make sure you still have access to your account, set up your MFA by the 15th using an authenticator app.

With data centres housing many critical online systems, these will be classified as critical national infrastructure moving forward. This means the government will provide support in the event of a cyber attack, which will "allow better coordination and cooperation with the Government against cyber criminals and unexpected events".
