The UK Government has issued an open letter to business leaders highlighting the growing cyber security risks driven by rapid advances in artificial intelligence. As AI tools become more capable, cyber attacks are expected to increase in speed, scale and sophistication, making it easier for criminals to exploit vulnerabilities.
Businesses of all sizes are being urged to take action now by strengthening their cyber resilience. This includes prioritising cyber security at leadership level, implementing basic protections such as Cyber Essentials, and making use of free guidance and services from the National Cyber Security Centre.
