1).\u00a0<\/strong>MANAGED SERVICE PROVIDERS:<\/strong> Majority of UK businesses set to outsource cybersecurity operations within two years. A recent survey conducted by Logpoint<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0 indicates that 80% of UK<\/strong> businesses are expected to outsource their cybersecurity operations within the next two years. The study, which polled 1,762 C-suite executives, revealed that 28% of respondents anticipate their IT security teams will be managed by a third party. This figure builds on the existing 52% of UK<\/strong> businesses that already outsource this function.
