Mapping the UK SME Cyber Security Landscape in 2025

Our new research whitepaper takes a deep dive into the experiences of IT professionals who manage cyber security defences within small and medium organisations. What frustrates them? What are their top cyber security concerns? Do they have the technology, skills and resources to mount an effective defence? Do their peers and their leadership teams get to hear about their successes? Are the people that they’re protecting within their
organisation provided with sufficient education to spot the signs of a cyber-attack?

It’s tough on the front line of cyber security defence, and sometimes it’s easy to think you’re alone—whether celebrating a success or learning lessons from a defeat.

But we hope that our data and commentary show that all IT and cyber security professionals face the same challenges and battle the same frustrations. They can, therefore, learn from each other and benefit from the same solutions. Together, we can draw on our collective strength and mount a stronger-than-ever defence against cybercriminals and other bad actors.
