 About
37% of UK businesses experience information security attacks at least once a month. With online information hacking happening every 39 seconds on average, information security is increasingly one of the most crucial considerations all businesses must pay attention to.

By 2020, it's predicted that there will be approximately 200 billion Internet of Things (IoT) devices available around the home and workplace. These include more unconventional items like fridges and speakers which will all need varying level of security. The reality is that there has never been a more urgent time to protect yourself, your assets, and your organisation from potential information breaches.
