Fraud and cybercrime have surged across the world over the last year and especially since the COVID-19 restrictions were introduced in March/April 2020. Criminals have sought to exploit the vulnerabilities of companies and individuals. We need to make sure we are as well protected as possible but also able to respond if we need to.
