Most boards -- and certainly all CISOs -- now understand that it is not if a cyber attack happens, but when.
None the less, organisations are not doing enough to ensure that they can continue to operate during a cyber attack, and recover from it.
And the latest UK Government Cyber Security Breaches survey goes further, suggesting that not only are organisations failing to invest in cyber security, but in some cases, are going backwards. They are paying less attention to the basic "cyber hygiene" measures that can help prevent breaches in the first place.
Our guest this week is Prof. Steven Furnell, professor of cyber security at Nottingham University,a senior member of the IEEE, and one of the researchers for the Cyber Security Breaches survey. 
In this episode he discusses the pressures that could be prompting organisations to cut back on security, comparisons between cyber and "physical" crime, the need for awareness and resilience and what we need to do in a world where cyber attacks are now endemic.
