Christmas. It’s a classic time for accidental stupidity.
How many of us have had a few beers, jumped on the last train home, fallen asleep and rushed off in a panic at the right station… only to leave our laptop or mobile behind?
You might not have done. But loads of people have.

Office 365 contains lots of features you might not know about yet.

Well, that advice changed in April. Microsoft previously advised all passwords were changed every 60 days. Now it says that’s no longer necessary.
In fact, it called the practice “an ancient and obsolete mitigation of very low value”.
Wow!
And no wonder, really. In our experience, we saw people just using different versions of the same weak password – Fluffy1, Fluffy2, Fluffy3 etc.
As cyber security experts, our advice now is to:
These 3 simple steps alone can make a dramatic difference to the cyber security of most businesses.

This doesn’t make for comfortable reading.
The latest data shows that 72% of UK organisations still fall short of their GDPR requirements.
That’s 18 months after the legislation became law.
Oops.
GDPR compliance is essential for businesses of all sizes. No matter how big or small, you’ve got to get your data protection together.
