Cyber-what-now?
Q4. What do you think the greatest barrier to building
cyber resilience is for UK organisations?
40% of business leaders admit that the greatest barrier to building cyber resilience is either
a lack of understanding of cyber risk, or the fact that it is not seen as a priority by the Board.
Perhaps unsurprisingly, our technical group has cited lack of budget as their main challenge,
with a lack of understanding by the Board as the second most common barrier.

*Prioritising it with the board and budget is crucial to it’s wellbeing. Just like water to an office plant.
