Apple has dropped emergency updates to fix three zero-day vulnerabilities—and yes, they’re already being exploited.

These flaws affect iPhones, iPads, Macs, and more, letting attackers bypass USB protections, escape Safari’s sandbox, and escalate privileges through CoreMedia.

If you’re not updating your devices right now, you’re basically rolling out the red carpet for hackers. This isn’t just another patch Tuesday. It’s a loud, flashing red warning. Your move.

A cyber breach isn’t just an IT headache—it’s a full-blown business crisis. If you run a small UK business and your systems are compromised, your next 24 hours are critical.

This guide walks you through what to do and why—from shutting the breach down without wiping forensic evidence, to dealing with regulators, staff, and customers. Most importantly, it makes clear that your MSP or IT team should not be leading the response.

You need an independent Incident Manager and a solid plan. No fluff. No jargon. Just the straight facts to help you limit damage and recover fast.

A hacker could be hiding in your business for over nine months before you even notice—and IBM has the stats to prove it. Their latest report shows UK small businesses are dangerously exposed to long dwell times, where cybercriminals quietly steal data, cause chaos, and vanish before anyone sounds the alarm. If you're not actively looking for threats, you're practically inviting them in. Here's what dwell time means for your business—and how to slam the door shut.

So naturally… the ICO fined them £4.4 million.
And then knocked £3 million off for being helpful afterwards.

Yes, really. That’s the cybersecurity equivalent of “you crashed the car but said sorry nicely—so we’ll waive the repair bill.”

I’ve written a new piece on this absolute masterclass in weak governance, supplier accountability theatre, and the dangerous precedent it sets.

Over half of UK businesses got digitally f**ked last year—and most didn’t even realise until it was too late. While leadership played buzzword bingo, ransomware crews strolled in through weak passwords and forgotten patches. Attacks hit every 44 seconds. Still think “we’re too small to be a target” holds up? It doesn’t. Hope isn’t a strategy. Luck isn’t resilience. And if you’ve got no plan, you’re just waiting to be the next headline.

Microsoft’s at it again—this time breaking Remote Desktop for Windows 11 users with their latest round of updates. If your helpdesk tickets are piling up with RDP disconnects and login weirdness, you’re not alone.

From silent session drops to broken smart card authentication, this bug is hitting SMBs and IT pros where it hurts. We unpack what’s going wrong, who’s affected, and how to survive it—while Microsoft casually promises a fix “at some point.” Spoiler: rollback might be your only friend.

London ranks dead last for 5G performance in Europe – but it’s not just the capital struggling. Across the UK, coverage is patchy, motorway connectivity is unreliable, and performance wildly varies between networks.

Yet where it’s deployed properly, UK 5G can rival the best on the continent.

The problem? Not the tech – the execution. Less hype, more follow-through, and a proper plan could turn the UK’s 5G fortunes around.

Most UK businesses spend more on coffee than on Cyber Security Awareness Training—and that’s exactly how breaches happen. Your biggest threat isn’t a hacker in a hoodie; it’s Dave in Sales clicking a dodgy email.

The good news? Quality training is cheap, effective, and actually enjoyable. For less than the cost of your weekly latte run, you can turn your staff from cyber risks into cyber defenders.

Still think you can’t afford it? Think again.

Think your Bluetooth devices are safe? Think again. Security researchers just found hidden, undocumented commands in the ESP32 chip—used in over a billion devices worldwide. This means hackers could exploit your smart gadgets, from speakers to security cameras, without you ever knowing. And the best part?

Manufacturers didn’t tell anyone. Is your tech spying on you? Maybe. Here’s what you need to know—and how to protect yourself before it’s too late. 🚨
