Why does it matters?
According to the UK Government’s Cyber Security Breaches Survey 2024, 50% of UK businesses and 32% of charities experienced a cyber breach or attack in the past year. The most common threat? Phishing, affecting 84% of businesses. The average cost of the most disruptive breach was £1,205 for small businesses and £10,830 for medium and large organisations.1 Human error remains the leading cause of successful attacks - often due to a lack of awareness or training. This ARTS Course can help to change that.
