Cyber crime key on keyboard

Lockton report shows half of UK businesses expect to be entirely operational 48 hours after a large-scale cyber security breach.

A report by Lockton has revealed that UK businesses are severely “unprepared for a cyber shock”.

The broker found – in the study that polled 200 chief financial officers, chief risk officers and chief information officers as well as directors of risk and general legal counsel – that 50% expect to be entirely operational 48 hours after a large-scale cyber security breach.

Just 2% of UK businesses think a breach will affect them for more than 10 days.
