Network Security
In today’s connected world, effective information security across the entire business network has never been more vital.
Every day there are countless malicious attempts to steal, illegally modify, intercept, or disseminate confidential documents, or gain unauthorised access to private and business networks.
This White Paper examines the key challenges that businesses face in protecting their IT infrastructure, in relation to networked office devices, such as Multifunction Printers (MFPs).
Don't be another statistic
Recent government research found that 31% of UK businesses estimate they were attacked at least once a week in 2022 and one in five businesses say they experienced a negative outcome as a direct consequence of a cyber-attack. And looking at organisations reporting a material outcome, such as loss of money or data, it gives an estimated average cost of £4,200 from cyber-attacks in the last 12 months. When considering only medium and large businesses; the figure rises to £19,400.
Adding to the issue, there’s a major global shortage of cyber security professionals, with 44% of UK businesses reporting that their Cyber Security vacancies are hard to fill. As such they lack the necessary internal resources and skills needed to fend off cyber threats.
It’s reported that 95% of cybersecurity breaches are caused by human error, meaning they were likely preventable with basic cyber hygiene and training. Emphasising the importance of an established cyber security awareness culture.
Unfortunately, most businesses only discover they’ve been hacked, once it’s too late. The sooner you act, the better protected you will be.

Why is Cyber Security so important?
In today's landscape, cyber security poses several challenges that make it difficult for businesses to decide whether to invest in it or not. Many businesses hold common misconceptions such as believing they are immune to cyber threats or that they lack the necessary budget. However, it's crucial to recognise that cyber security is a global priority that has never been more important.
The risks involved in cyber-attacks are substantial, directly impacting business continuity by causing data loss and reduced productivity. Moreover, these attacks come with a significant price tag. In fact, experts predict that the cost of cybercrime in 2022 was estimated to have amounted to $8.44 trillion worldwide and projected is to reach to $23.84 trillion in 2027.
Failing to comply with GDPR regulations can result in severe fines and consequences of non-compliance go far beyond financial penalties. Organisations must consider the potential for negative publicity and damage to their reputation and customer relationships.
Given the ever-changing landscape of cyber threats, with attacks becoming more frequent and sophisticated, it is imperative for your business to be fully equipped to tackle the latest cyber risks. Stay ahead of the curve and ensure your organisation is prepared to defend against these evolving threats.
