BCS, The Chartered Institute for IT, is calling on businesses to ensure their employees are up to speed with cyber security

The institute points to research by the Department for Business, Innovation and Skills (BIS) that shows 31% of the worst security breaches in businesses in the year were caused by inadvertent human error (and a further 20% by deliberate misuse of systems by staff).

Jon Buttriss, CEO of BCS Learning & Development, explained: "Business leaders cannot disregard cyber security issues or pretend that they don't apply to them.

“In every organisation, whatever your size, everyone has a role to play in cyber security – it's not just an issue for the IT department. Any cyber security breach has the potential to have enormous consequences for customer trust, particularly when that breach comes from inside the company," he warned.
