The UK’s cyber security agency has issued a stark warning regarding a record surge in serious online attacks, attributing the "significant threat" to Chinese and Russian hackers.
The National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC), a division of GCHQ, reported a 50 per cent increase in "highly significant" incidents over the year ending August. This rise underscores the tangible impact of cyberattacks, as evidenced by breaches affecting major British brands such as Marks and Spencer, Co-op, and Jaguar Land Rover.
