The European Union Agency for Cybersecurity (ENISA) recently released its report on the cyber threat landscape for the healthcare sector and it didn’t make for pretty reading.

Do an image search for hackers and you’ll be greeted with a multitude of images of men and women wearing balaclavas and masks (why would a hacker need to wear a mask?) sat at a computer plotting some nefarious scheme. Why is this the common representation of hackers? Could it be a result of watching too many movies or is it part of the narrative that you should be afraid of these people?In this blog we take a look at the different types of hackers and their motivations. 

Continuing our series on the most significant cyber-attacks this year, Integrity360's incident response team has turned its attention to the cyber security trends that we expect to surface in the latter half of the year.  

There’s a myriad of cybersecurity compliance frameworks designed to assist organisations in constructing secure IT environments, assuring data safeguarding and minimising cybersecurity risks. There’s so many that it can get a tad confusing at times. In this article we delve into several of the key frameworks, including CIS, ISO 27001, ISO 27017, ISO 27701, Cyber Essentials, SOC 2, GDPR, and NIST, whilst also highlighting the benefits of each. 

Businesses face a constant barrage of potential cyber-attacks, aiming to compromise data, applications, and other crucial assets. The backbone of an effective, modern-day cyber security strategy? The Security Operation Centre (SOC).

In part 2 of our series on the major cyberattacks of 2023 we'll be examining the attacks on Royal Mail and JD Sports. We'll also take a closer look at one of the largest DDoS attacks ever documented and delve into the havoc caused by the Black Basta ransomware spree.

We’re already at the midway point of 2023 and so far there plenty of cyber incidents have hit the headlines. In this blog we take a look at some of the biggest cyber attacks of 2023 (so far).

Cyber security is a critical issue for businesses of all sizes, but small-to-medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are particularly vulnerable to the threat with data showing that 43% of cyber-attacks target SMEs and that 60% of small businesses hit by a cyber-attack go out of business within six months.

In a world where cyber threats are becoming increasingly complex and devastating, the necessity for robust cyber security measures is indisputable. One method often utilised by cyber security professionals to analyse and strengthen defences is penetration testing, also known as 'pen testing'. One variant that is distinctive due to its unique approach and notable benefits is Double Blind Penetration Testing.

In today's interconnected, digital world, cyber security is no longer a luxury, it's a necessity. This holds especially true for the small to medium-sized businesses (SMEs), that are the backbone of the economy. While you are busy revolutionising industries, creating jobs, and fostering innovation, it is crucial not to overlook one aspect of your operations - cyber security. This might seem like a daunting task, but rest assured, it doesn’t have to be. 

Cyber threats lurk everywhere in the online realm, and it's not just large corporations at risk; small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are equally vulnerable. Which is why cyber security compliance  is so important. We look into what the benefits of being compliant are and how Integrity360 can assist your businesses to become compliant. 

A crucial component of solid cyber security is penetration testing, otherwise known as pen testing or ethical hacking. Essentially, penetration testing is a methodical process of scrutinising an organisation's IT system, network or web application to spot potential vulnerabilities a hacker could exploit.
