Welcome to DBD. Cybercrime made global headlines in 2025. Attacks on well-known brands and organisations raised public awareness of the severity, frequency and impact of cyber attacks. Ransomware attacks were the highest ever recorded, and 2026 could be worse, as cyber criminals continue to extort their victims, with little chance of being brought to justice. It's a dangerous world out there, so please be extra vigilant and mindful of the risks and threats. Wishing you all the best for the New Year. Thanks again for all your support. Stay safe. :)
