According to recent research from insurer Hiscox, over a third (37%) of UK businesses reported that their cybersecurity measures had been compromised due to insufficient internal expertise in handling new technology risks.

The survey also found that 34% of UK business leaders felt unprepared to manage a cyberattack, even though 70% of UK respondents reported a rise in cyberattacks over the past year.

Additionally, 70% of UK companies have adopted generative artificial intelligence (AI) in their operations, with 57% believing this technology will have a substantial impact on their cybersecurity risk profile.
