Cyber Breaches Survey
Published annually by DSIT, the Cyber Breaches Survey provides one of the most comprehensive pictures of how organisations across the UK are experiencing and responding to cyber threats. The survey's education-focused findings offer valuable insight into the challenges schools face, from phishing attacks and ransomware incidents to staff awareness, cyber governance and incident response.
Understanding these trends is essential for school leaders, IT teams, safeguarding leads and trust executives looking to make informed decisions about cyber security investment, planning and risk management.
