A minority of UK small and medium enterprises (SMEs) are giving high priority to cyber threats, research has revealed.
Although cyber threats are gaining recognition among SMEs, there is a clear need to raise awareness and protection, according to the Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET).
Threats to systems are increasing and new vulnerabilities are emerging daily, said Hugh Boyes, the IET’s cyber security expert.
“We are working to raise awareness among the UK engineering and technology community of the need to improve the cyber security of both our critical national infrastructure and all the technology we use,” he said.
