Cyber security: Navigating the evolving landscape

The landscape of cyber threats is ever-evolving – reflecting the current dominance of digital advancements (AI, anyone?) in our work and personal lives. With reports of ransomware attacks and data breaches becoming more and more common, how concerned should you be about your business’s cyber security?

Motivations behind cyber crime

There are differing motivations behind cyber attacks, though among ‘black hat’ hackers – your stereotypical cyber criminals who work to break into personal networks and devices to steal sensitive data – financial gain is the most common. A Verizon study from 2023 involving multiple countries, including the UK, revealed that the majority of data breaches (97%) were money driven.

With online hacking groups focusing their efforts where they can cause the most damage , law firms are among those considered a valuable target due to the abundance of sensitive data and privileged information stored in their networks. Once such data is obtained, it can be held for ransom and/or sold on the dark web. Sensitive data can often be lucrative in the virtual underworld.

Other motives include reputation. For some cyber criminals, it’s all about the thrill of overcoming security measures and infiltrating systems. These individuals frequently target high-profile organisations, deeming a successful breach a personal triumph. However, the consequences of these breaches can be severe, compromising customer trust and damaging a business’ reputation.

An example of this is the 2014 cyber-attack on Sony Pictures Entertainment, a breach that exposed sensitive employee data, private email exchanges and unreleased films. As a result, Sony Pictures faced extensive reputational damage, as well as significant financial loss.

More recent examples include Royal Mail, who were targeted by ransomware group ‘Lockbit’ last January, and ‘magic circle’ law firm Allen and Overy later the same year. With the hacking group taking credit for the latter attack on their website, clearly keen to claim the high-profile breach, this suggests media coverage and notoriety among cyber criminals may be another motivational factor.

Does size matter?

Though the rewards of targeting sizeable organisations are greater if successful, smaller firms are also at risk.

Cyber threats don’t discriminate by company size. In fact, smaller businesses are often seen as softer targets by cybercriminals because they assume security might not be as robust.

One of the biggest challenges companies face now comes with the interconnectedness of modern supply chains. Cyber criminals can exploit weaknesses in these supply chains to compromise multiple entities simultaneously, meaning the security of every link in the chain becomes crucial, requiring strict vetting processes and a collaborative approach.

Reducing your risks of a cyber attack

To reduce risk, companies need to implement multiple layers of security. Cyber security is not a one-size-fits-all solution. In order to create a robust defence system, you need an in-depth defence strategy, including firewalls, antivirus software, intrusion detection systems and regular security audits. This multifaceted approach ensures that any vulnerabilities are addressed at various levels, rather than ‘divide and conquer’ think ‘divide and defend’. The challenges lie in both trying to prevent these attacks, but also devising effective recovery strategies should your network and data be targeted or compromised.

While emphasis is often placed on the implementation of robust technology, cyber threats can also be largely mitigated through training, education and awareness. A proactive approach to cyber security will always be the best way to minimise your company’s susceptibility to threats from cyber criminals.

Bounce Back Loans: May 2024 news roundup

As we’ve been reporting, the Insolvency Service’s recent press releases have been awash with director disqualifications and bankruptcy restrictions related to misuse of the Bounce Back Loan Scheme (BBLS).

May 2024 was a particularly busy month, with 7 separate updates from the Insolvency Service on the topic of Bounce Back Loans.

Suspended sentences

Several individuals have received suspended sentences for misusing the Bounce Back Loan Scheme.

Sehrish Yasmin, a restaurant manager in London, was given a suspended sentence after using £12,000 of Bounce Back Loan money to purchase jewellery instead of supporting her business. The £12,000 was taken from 2 £50,000 loans obtained by Ms Yasmin, despite companies only being eligible for a single loan under the scheme. Moreover, Ms Yasmin failed to deliver records to the liquidator when her company was liquidated in May 2021.

Another case involved a cleaner, Anna Dalecka, also based in London, who received a suspended sentence for abusing the loan scheme. Ms Dalecka “wildly overstated her takings by £216,000” in claiming the maximum £50,000 loan.

Sheffield-based James Todd was sentenced after spending a fraudulently obtained loan for a non-existent business on a BMW, among other personal expenditure. Mr Todd obtained a £50,000 loan for Pro Detailing, a business he invented – along with its £255,000 turnover – for the purpose of applying for a Bounce Back Loan. He spent £49,755 of the loan funds “on personal purposes” in less than a month.

Similarly, Rian O’Keeffe of Hammersmith, London used a fictitious business to acquire his £50,000 Bounce Back Loan. Mr O’Keeffe invented a £312,000 turnover for ‘Trainersource’ when applying for the loan. He withdrew £22,000 in cash and spent the loan money “on general living expenses”, eventually being declared bankrupt in November 2021.

Ms Yasmin was handed a 10-month prison sentence, suspended for 12 months, at Manchester Crown Court on 16th May 2024. She has since repaid both loans in full and has been ordered to pay £5,000 in compensation and costs.

Ms Dalecka was sentenced to 18 months in prison, suspended for 24 months, on 3rd May 2024 at Snaresbrook Crown Court. She was also ordered to complete 300 hours of unpaid work and was handed a 3-month curfew.

Mr Todd was also sentenced to 18 months in prison, suspended for 24 months. His sentencing took place at Sheffield Crown Court on 20th May 2024. Mr Tood must complete 240 hours of unpaid work and pay £2,000 in compensation.

Mr O’Keeffe was also given an 18-month prison sentence, suspended for 2 years, at Southwark Crown Court. He is subject to a 3-month curfew and 30 days of rehabilitation activity.

All 4 have been handed lengthy directorship bans in addition to their suspended sentences.

These cases highlight the severe consequences individuals faced for misusing the emergency loans, even if the sentences were suspended.

Directorship bans

While the suspended sentences handed out in May’s reported cases represent the most stringent punishments, other abusers of the Bounce Back Loan Scheme were given directorship bans.

A husband and wife estate agency team from Cornwall were disqualified from directorships for 6 and 5 years, respectively, after acquiring a £50,000 Bounce Back Loan using a false turnover figure and then using the money for personal gain instead of business purposes.

Another notable case involved a London-based builder who received a 10-year ban for obtaining a £50,000 Bounce Back Loan through fraudulent means and failing to provide proof of how the funds were used.

A greengrocer from London was disqualified for 7 years and told to pay over £37,000 in compensation for using £19,000 of the £35,000 Bounce Back Loan he acquired to invest on the stock market. Emra Kayam dissolved his business in November 2020 with the full value of the loan still outstanding.

Ongoing investigations

May’s flurry of updates is a reminder that, while many cases of Bounce Back Loan fraud have been prosecuted, there are ongoing investigations into suspected misuse of the scheme. In relation to the husband and wife estate agency business, Chief Investigator at the Insolvency Service, Kevin Read said: “Tackling abuse of the Bounce Back Loan scheme is a key priority for the Insolvency Service.”

Similarly, Lawrence Zussman, Deputy Head of Company Investigations at the Insolvency Services said (in relation to a different case): “[This] lengthy ban shows the Insolvency Service will pursue those who seek to abuse taxpayers’ money and remove them from the business arena.”

Insolvency and debt investigations

Seeing the whole picture in insolvency and debt cases is key to maximising returns to creditors.

Latest SRI research shows security culture integral to facilitating security excellence

This article was originally published by IFSEC Insider.

Entitled ‘The importance of Security Culture in Facilitating Security Excellence’, the research is based on the views of security professionals from both in-house and contract positions, as well as other security experts.

Among several findings, the report outlines the importance professionals place on security culture, but that it isn’t always easy to achieve. Fundamental to doing so requires the security department to effectively engage with other areas of their organisation and to showcase how security can go beyond its traditional remit and actively contribute to overall organisational success.

A copy of the report is downloadable for free from the Perpetuity Research website.

The report’s lead researcher, Professor Martin Gill, highlighted some of the key takeaways:

Security culture is very important to a successful security operation: Culture sits alongside other key aspects such as effective leadership, clear objectives and an effective security strategy.

Culture is at least as important as strategy: Culture brings life to strategy and defines the extent to which strategy is executed – a third cited culture as more important than strategy.

Security culture and organisational culture are linked: There is a relationship between security and organisational culture, with a good organisational culture enabling good security culture, but a bad one would create challenges.

Security professionals do not believe organisation workforces are sufficiently engaged in security: While two thirds of respondents felt the workforce values physical security measures, they were less inclined to view the workforces as strongly engaged with security.

The barriers to engagement need to be overcome: There are several reasons for a lack of engagement, including lack of senior level ‘buy in’, lack of investment, negative perceptions of security and lack of communication, among others. Meanwhile, new trends such as working remotely may compromise the quality of security and ability to develop a security culture.

Communication of the value of security is key: More focus is required on engaging the workforce and ultimately, effective communication of the value of security is key to overcoming the barriers. Messages need to be tailored for leadership and the right audience, to demonstrate the benefits of security.

“Good security culture is essential… but can be hard to obtain”

Professor Martin Gill who led the research noted:

“Our research suggests that security professionals are unequivocal about the value of security culture in supporting security excellence. Good security culture is an essential ingredient but one that can be hard to obtain.

“The key, according to our participants, is to effectively articulate the value of security in ways that are meaningful to different audiences within an organisation. This means stepping beyond the notion that security is only there to deal with a crisis and demonstrating that security is an enabler of operations and moreover a contributor to the overall success of an organisation.

“If good security is about engaging the hearts and minds of stakeholders, not least staff and hierarchies, then our results suggest that the security sector is struggling. Worse still some recent societal trends are complicating the problem and increasing the difficulty of the challenge.”

Cyber security concerns continue to rise among physical security professionals

This article was originally published by IFSEC Insider.

Based on insights from over 5,500 physical security leaders globally, the research showed that while organisations are putting in place new processes to protect themselves, the level of concern about potential cyber threats continues to increase.

Close to a third (31%) of end-user respondents indicated that their organisation was targeted by cyber threat actors in 2023. Some sectors were far more affected than others. 73% of respondents in the intelligence and national security sector and 46% in the banking and finance sector said were the victims of cyber-attacks compared 21% in the retail sector.

In August, British perimeter security company, Zaun Ltd, was breached by the LockBit group. Despite only accessing a small fraction of the company’s internal network, the hackers appeared to have leaked sensitive documents relating to the physical security of agencies in the UK Ministry of Defence.

A top challenge faced

Cybersecurity vulnerabilities were identified by 36% of end-user respondents as a top challenge facing their organisations in 2023. In the healthcare sector, cybersecurity vulnerabilities were identified by a higher percentage of respondents than any other challenge (43%).

Organisations are, however, being more proactive with 42% of end-user respondents indicating that their organisations are deploying cybersecurity-related tools in their physical security environments. This is a significant increase compared to last year when only 27% said they had put in place processes to protect themselves.

“It is reassuring to see growing awareness of the cybersecurity of physical security systems,” Mathieu Chevalier, Principal Security Architect at Genetec said: “As more organisations look to implement enhanced cybersecurity measures, they need to look for manufacturers who are committed to cybersecurity and building tools that help them streamline the maintenance and updates of their systems.”

Video surveillance tech on the rise in luxury homes

This article was originally published by IFSEC Insider.

Common features of the type of surveillance being invested in are said to be high-definition cameras for clearer images, AI-driven analytics for detecting unusual or suspicious activity and cloud storage, amongst others

Aesthetics, IoT and security 

As well as AI, other surveillance technologies are having a significant impact on luxury home security including motion detectors, infrared cameras and PTZ cameras, along with wireless systems.

This use of advanced technology for residential properties instead of traditional business premises may be driven by increasing awareness and want for more real-time, accurate information, such as with the rising use of doorbell cameras.

According to Forbes, integration of systems was a top smart home trend this year, followed by AI and Internet of Things (IoT).

The use of smart integration means that IoT is becoming more prevalent as a desirable feature, along with remote access, real-time alerts and unified control over the surveillance and security of a home.

Another main feature being prioritised is aesthetics. Discrete, seamless, well-designed and possibly tailored surveillance systems to suit the luxurious and high-priced homes are in demand.

Luxury houses are then thought to be more appealing as well as ‘future-proofed’ by the advanced security technology.

‘Peace of mind’

Similarly, another report found that smart locks provide more ‘peace of mind’ to homeowners who can use the technology to remotely lock or unlock doors and entrance systems without having a traditional key, using methods such as mobile access control. 

Middleton Advisors’ Head of London Sales team, James Moran said: “Those concerned about security will be drawn to gated communities and high-end apartment complexes which offer unrivalled amenities such as concierge services, 24hr security, and the added privacy of enhanced entry systems. Particularly, if people have had concerns or issues before, this often becomes a non-negotiable part of the search.

“A balance is definitely required with security features; people don’t want bunkers and panic rooms, they want to live life. Large steel gates and high walls can be unsightly, remind residents of safety issues, and make the house less desirable should they decide to sell in the future.

“Looking forward to new technologies, particularly with AI, including heat detection and night vision which AI can decipher the difference between animals and trees moving and people within the house circumference.”

How to manage director or shareholder disputes in a limited company

By guest author Jon Munnery of UK Liquidators.

A director or shareholder dispute can create serious tension and disruption within a limited company.

This is why it is always worthwhile putting a policy in place to manage disputes before they affect operational effectiveness.

The bad feeling caused by a dispute can lead to neglect of the company’s day-to-day requirements, such as a failure to monitor cash flow or customer complaints. In these instances, the business could enter a financial decline unnoticed or experience a loss of trade due to poor customer service.

What are the common reasons for disputes within a limited company?

Conflicts within a limited company can arise for many reasons, but some of the most common triggers include:

  • Disagreement over future business strategies.
  • Director performance.
  • Employing family members.
  • Breach of director duty.
  • Director salaries being too high.
  • Dividend payouts being too low.
  • 50:50 director or shareholder deadlocks.

So how can director and shareholder disputes be managed and resolved before they become too detrimental to the company?

Managing director and shareholder disputes

Disputes within a limited company may be managed using the company’s Articles of Association and/or a shareholders’ agreement if one is in place. It is advisable to draft a formal shareholders’ agreement at an early stage, although it is possible to create one at any point.

If a dispute becomes lengthy or appears to be impossible to resolve, expert intervention from a qualified third party may also provide a solution that allows the company to move forward.

Include a dispute resolution process in the Articles of Association

Detailing a formal procedure for resolving disputes provides a clear template for moving past a commercially dangerous period without jeopardising the company’s current success or future plans.

The Articles of Association are written rules on how the company will be run and they provide the perfect opportunity to lay out how disputes should be dealt with. As an example, the Articles might state that if the dispute cannot be resolved ‘in-house,’ the company can appoint a professional mediator to guide directors towards a resolution.

Use a Shareholders’ Agreement

A shareholders’ agreement is a formal written agreement between the shareholders of a company and often provides them with more rights than the company’s Articles of Association.

An agreement can cover various aspects of business, such as financing and management, but also how disputes will be resolved. Without a shareholders’ agreement that includes dispute resolution, conflicts may be more common and lengthy.

Resolution between shareholders or shareholders and directors would have to rely on the process detailed in the Articles of Association, which may not provide the same protection for shareholders as a formal agreement.

Removing a director

Sometimes a dispute cannot be resolved either in-house or by using mediation and the only way forward may be to have a director removed. This might be the case if the director refuses to resign, for example, and they have seriously breached their duties as a director.

The company’s Articles may state the circumstances in which a director can be removed, and how this should be done, allowing the company to progress without the distraction of a prolonged conflict.

Seeking professional assistance during a shareholder dispute

Obtaining advice from a qualified third party during a dispute can protect the company from protracted disruption and possible loss of reputation. If the potential for disputes is considered at an early stage, and dispute resolution is included in the business plan, it can ease a challenging problem and allow a company to reach its full potential.
