UK THREAT LANDSCAPE · 2025

The UK Cyber Threat Reality

UK businesses face more cyber attacks than ever. The NCSC and DCMS report rising breach frequency, escalating costs, and phishing as the dominant attack vector. Understanding the landscape is the first step to defending against it.

of UK businesses reported a cyber breach or attack in the last 12 months (DCMS 2024)

average time to identify a breach in UK firms without 24/7 monitoring

IBM Cost of a Data Breach

Why UK SMEs are the #1 target

Attackers target SMEs because they hold valuable data (customer records, payment details, intellectual property) but typically have weaker defences than enterprises. The NCSC reports that 50% of UK businesses identified a breach in the last year, and the average cost now exceeds £20,000 for a medium firm — rising to £3.4m for large businesses. Phishing remains the dominant vector (74% of breaches), followed by ransomware, BEC, and supply-chain compromise. Without 24/7 monitoring, UK firms take an average of 21 days to even detect a breach — by which point data exfiltration is often complete.

OUR METHODOLOGY

How a Gridisys Consulting Engagement Works

A structured, four-phase methodology — from discovery to ongoing monitoring. Fixed-price, board-ready, and aligned to NCSC and UK regulatory expectations.

1
Week 1

Discovery & Gap Assessment

We map your current security posture against NCSC Cyber Assessment Framework, Cyber Essentials, and your regulatory regime (UK GDPR, FCA PS21/3, NIS2). Includes Microsoft 365 / Entra ID configuration audit, endpoint review, and stakeholder interviews.

Week 2

Risk Prioritisation & Roadmap

We score every identified risk by likelihood and business impact, then build a prioritised remediation roadmap aligned to your budget, risk appetite, and compliance deadlines. Board-ready documentation — no jargon.

Week 3–4

Implementation & Hardening

We implement the highest-priority controls: conditional access policies, MFA enforcement, privileged account separation, mailbox hardening, Defender tuning, and logging configuration for SOC visibility.

Ongoing Monitoring & Review
