Your business is a target. Hackers only need one weakness.

A single cyberattack on one of the UK's catering companies could expose client contracts, allergen records and invoices, halt day-to-day operations and trigger regulatory reporting, fines and lasting reputational damage. Small firms are not too small to be targeted. Automated attacks scan every UK business for an easy way in.

Why catering companies are targeted: Contract caterers serving schools and hospitals must meet public-sector cyber requirements to keep contracts.
