Educational & easy-to consume visual guides to understanding attacks & enhancing resilience
British retail giant Marks & Spencer (M&S) recently made headlines as it fell victim to a sophisticated cyber attack. Its operations were disrupted and online services halted. This inflicted significant financial and reputational damage to the retailer. The breach, attributed to the hacking group Scattered Spider, serves as a stark reminder of the escalating cyber threats facing organisations worldwide.
M&S has reportedly faced losses to the tune of £1billion due to this devastating attack. It has also, apparently, shed over 12 per cent of its value or £1.05billion since the hack on Easter weekend.
