Beyond the Horizon: Future-Focused MSP Insights
Business Learnings from the UK’s M&S and Co-op Hacks
In this special edition of Beyond the Horizon podcast, head security expert Lewis Pope takes a deep dive into recent high-profile cyberattacks in the UK — particularly those affecting Co-op and M&S. He analyzes what happened, who's behind the incidents, and what businesses can learn from these attacks to bolster their own cyber resilience.
Key Topics Covered:
- Rapid Incident Response:
Insights into how swiftly Co-op reacted, with prepared public statements almost immediately after the breach. - The M&S Cyberattack:
Discussion on whether exploited vulnerabilities were previously known and patchable. - Ransomware Groups in Focus:
In-depth exploration of DragonForce and the Scattered Spider group — their tactics, trends, and what makes them notable. - Lessons for Business Leaders:
Critical takeaways for organizations on preparedness, patching, response protocols, and interdepartmental coordination (e.g., involving HR in resilience planning). - Wider Resilience Threats:
Exploration of physical infrastructure vulnerabilities like undersea cable threats and recent power outages in Europe, and how freak weather and climate shifts intersect with cybersecurity.
Lewis emphasizes that resilience isn’t just a technical issue—it’s an organizational one, requiring involvement from abroad range of departments including HR, facilities, IT, and executive leadership. Cybersecurity today is about more than just prevention. It’s about response readiness, cross-functional resilience, and understanding the expanding threat landscape—both digital and physical.
