Why Medium

Medium rather than High: exposure is scored at a default because we cannot see your systems or suppliers. If it touches your systems or suppliers, treat it as High.

Briefing

  • Do not treat uncorroborated claims as confirmed breaches.

Questions to ask IT

  • Do we use the IBM products this covers, and which versions?
  • If it is still not patched, what mitigation is in place, and what is holding the fix up?

Next steps

  1. Confirm exposure, mitigation status and any service interruption risk.

Summary

  • Technology giant IBM have backed plans to diversify the UK’s cyber sector and encourage young people into cyber careers.
