Government data breach risks “significant”
We already believed that the risk of further public sector and government data breach incidents was significant, but a recent review has drawn similar conclusions.

This doesn’t come as a surprise to us, and we can explain why. Many are labelled as just “human error” incidents, but there can be so much more to it than that.
