  2. What is Cyber Risk…? The internet provides a largely anonymous and cost-effective method for those involved in organized crime, economic espionage, and other adversaries, to damage or embarrass companies. Those engaged in cyber attacks aim to secure economic advantage by stealing financial assets, intellectual property or critical information. This can be from a single serious event or a sustained attack over a period of time, sometimes years. The impact on a company as a result of being targeted in a cyber attack, including the impact on its reputation, can be catastrophic. Prosperity 24.7 – Commercial in confidence

  3. What is Cyber Risk…? Managing cyber risk is a business-critical activity, and cannot be regarded as simply an IT issue. Cyber risk is different from other types of risk because of the rapid evolution of technology and the resulting fundamental changes in the way business is conducted. Boards will need to think differently and consider taking wider advice, to ensure they fully understand the issues faced by their company in order to manage the risks appropriately.
