Traditional networks were built for a different way of working. Applications sat in a central data centre, employees worked from the office, and traffic flowed through predictable routes. Today, cloud services, hybrid working and distributed locations have changed that picture completely.

Is legacy technology holding you back? Do you have critical systems that only a small number of people understand? Infrastructure approaching end of support? Renewal or licencing pressure? Uncertainty over what should move to cloud? A board asking for cost control and resilience in the same conversation? Or a previous cloud project that solved one problem while creating new operational complexity?

The security model built for office-bound teams and on-site servers is being asked to do a very different job in the flexible and complex environments we work in today. This sets the scene for a comparison between Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) and traditional security really matters, for any organisations planning their next network investment.

What is a Managed Print Service (MPS)? A Managed Print Service is exactly what it sounds like: outsourcing the management of your organisation's print environment to a specialist provider, rather than handling it in-house.

Webinar Your biggest cyber risk might be in your pocket Join our 30 minute discussion to understand the mobile threats facing your business and how Mobile Threat Defence can help reduce the risk. Register now Employee phones and tablets now hold the same sensitive company data as laptops, yet they are not always protected to the same standard. This leaves a clear opening for attackers, particularly as phishing increasingly targets employees through text messages. According to the Cyber Security Breaches Survey 2025/26, 43% of UK organisations experienced a cyber security breach or attack in the last 12 months, with phishing behind most incidents.

Back in May 2023, the government announced that £240 million would be made available for GP practices to buy and install cloud-based phone systems, pitched as a way of addressing the “8am rush” of patient calls.¹ Three years on, that funding round has closed, and the picture looks very different: the vast majority of practices have made the move, and cloud-based telephony is now something practices report on as standard, rather than something they apply for. This article reflects on what the programme achieved, what's required of practices now, and why the PSTN switch-off means this still isn't a topic to file away.

Your first submission will likely have provided valuable insights into the areas that are already supporting good cyber resilience, alongside opportunities for further development.

As organisations invest heavily in network, endpoint and cloud security, attackers are increasingly targeting mobile devices as a route into corporate systems. Yet many businesses still apply weaker security controls to smartphones and tablets than they do to traditional endpoints, creating opportunities for cyber criminals to exploit.
