Let the cyber criminals beware; the government is gearing up to overhaul the UK’s cyber security laws. The proposed Cyber Security and Resilience Bill is a major shake-up, aiming to sharpen how businesses defend themselves against increasingly sophisticated digital threats. Galvanised by recent high-profile attacks hitting everything from public hospitals to household names, this Bill aims to drag UK cyber laws into line with more modern, international frameworks.

But what exactly does this mean for businesses? Who’ll feel the most significant pressure to tighten their security? And why is cyber security now keeping business leaders awake at night?
