Tickling Firewalls: UK’s Public Sector Binge-Outsources Cybersecurity

Like a kid in a cybersecurity candy store, UK public sector bodies can’t resist the lure of Outsourced Cyber Services Usage. Setting up firewalls, assisting in incident recovery, or even running a fully outsourced security centre – why bother with the hassle when you can offload it? It’s all about comfort, convenience, and having your cyber-cake and eating it too!

Hot Take:

Public sector bodies in the UK are reaching out to cybersecurity experts like a kid reaching for the cookie jar. They can't resist that tasty, sweet security and the chance to offload the responsibility of managing those pesky firewalls. Outsourcing cybersecurity has become their go-to, and who can blame them with the scarcity of in-house talent? But hey, at least they're keeping their data safe...for now.

Okay, deep breath, let's get this over with. In the grand act of digital self-sabotage, we've littered this site with cookies. Yep, we did that. Why? So your highness can have a 'premium' experience or whatever. These traitorous cookies hide in your browser, eagerly waiting to welcome you back like a guilty dog that's just chewed your favorite shoe. And, if that's not enough, they also tattle on which parts of our sad little corner of the web you obsess over. Feels dirty, doesn't it?
