Sunday Morning Read: NCSC Annual Review 2025 Cyber resilience is a leadership issue. This year’s review from the National Cyber Security Centre is a must-read for anyone thinking about risk, reputation, and readiness. 🔑 Key takeaways: 1️⃣ Cyber risk is economic risk. Attacks on household brands have shown the true impact an attack can have (empty shelves, disrupted services, reputational damage, etc.). 2️⃣ Leadership matters. Cyber security must be owned by boards, not just IT teams. 3️⃣ Resilience at scale. From SMEs to critical infrastructure, proactive defence in depth, incident response and recovery planning are essential. 4️⃣ AI and quantum readiness. Emerging tech is reshaping both threats and defences; passkeys, post-quantum cryptography, and autonomous cyber agents are the future. 5️⃣ Collaboration is key. Threat sharing, public-private partnerships, and radical transparency are vital to staying ahead. 👉 Worth a read if you're thinking about how to future-proof your organisation. https://lnkd.in/eeUp5Z8G #CyberSecurity #Leadership #DigitalResilience #NCSC #SundayReading #AI #Quantum #CyberGovernance Would you like to tailor this further for your tone or audience?

Cyber threats are evolving faster than ever — and CISOs are being asked to do more, protect more, and prove more value to the business. AI is quickly becoming a must-have capability to keep pace. What I’m seeing: organizations that successfully leverage AI in cybersecurity aren’t just reacting faster — they’re strengthening trust, reducing operational strain, and allowing teams to focus on higher-impact decision making. The key is pairing AI innovation with strong governance and human oversight. When security becomes a business enabler, everyone wins. Excited to see how leaders continue to shape smarter, more resilient cyber strategies. Always happy to connect and share what we’re learning along the way. #CyberSecurity #AI #CISO #DigitalTrust #HealthTech Tasked with increasing responsibilities and oversight, CISOs are seeking ways to expand cyber capabilities with AI, while ... https://ow.ly/jkL250XigVI
