Why Cyber Security Matters for Lancashire Businesses
In today’s interconnected world, businesses across Lancashire face unprecedented cyber risks. From phishing scams targeting small enterprises to sophisticated ransomware attacks on large organizations, the potential costs of a data breach extend far beyond financial loss. According to the UK government’s Cyber Security Breaches Survey 2023, 32% of businesses in the North West region experienced at least one cyber breach or attack in the past year. This highlights the urgent need for proactive cyber security strategies that align with Lancashire’s unique business landscapes—from manufacturing hubs in Preston to tech-driven sectors in Blackburn.
