\nRed Helix<\/strong><\/a>,\u00a0 a leader in cybersecurity and network performance, has announced a \u00a31 million investment in its\u00a0UK<\/strong>-based 24\/7 Security Operations Center (SOC<\/strong>). This strategic move comes in response to the growing demand for specialized Cyber services in the\u00a0UK<\/strong>, with plans to expand its\u00a0SOC<\/strong>\u00a0team by 150%. In a competitive market facing a global shortage of Cybersecurity talent,\u00a0Red Helix<\/strong>\u00a0has successfully recruited and retained\u00a0SOC<\/strong>\u00a0analysts skilled in protecting small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs<\/strong>) from real-world threats.

\nIdentity Theft<\/strong> refers to the act of stealing personal information to commit fraud, impacting both individuals and businesses. In the UK<\/strong>, it is estimated that identity fraud costs businesses approximately \u00a32.7 billion annually, a staggering figure that highlights the vulnerability of Small Businesses<\/strong><\/a> in particular. These smaller enterprises often lack the robust cybersecurity measures that larger corporations might possess, making them easier targets for identity thieves. Alarmingly, only 13% of fraud cases are reported to the relevant authorities, indicating a significant level of underreporting and a potential lack of awareness regarding the risks involved …<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

GDPR Training & Audits – <\/strong>Your business’s reputation is everything. If you’re not GDPR<\/strong> compliant, there is much more at stake for your company than a fine. Without your reputation and proof that you can offer your clients\/customers complete privacy and protection, you could be left out in the cold. Our online course offers you a human approach to training while being informative and easy to follow. We also offer in-house training with Keith, who has been involved in the development of the General Data Protection Regulation with both the UK Information Commissioner’s Office and the Internet Advertising Bureau. As well as training, we are able to run full GDPR<\/strong> audits on your businesses terms and conditions and privacy policies.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
