ASOS customers have received an apparent unauthorised push notification claiming that attackers compromised a Snowflake instance. Here is what is confirmed, what remains unverified and what UK businesses should do when a cyber incident is still unfolding.

Revolut was not breached through its core systems. Criminals used a legitimate government email domain to request sensitive customer data. The incident is a useful warning for every business that relies on email and trusted relationships.

Backups are one of those things every business knows it should have.

They sit quietly in the background, reassuring everyone that if the worst happens, the data is safe and the business can carry on. But a backup is only useful if it can actually be restored.

That is why backup testing matters. It turns “we think we’re covered” into “we know what we can recover, how quickly, and what still needs fixing.” In the middle of a ransomware attack, cloud outage, accidental deletion, or failed migration, that difference becomes very real.

Ransomware hit record highs in Q1 of 2022, meaning we should all be cautious. But are you a target, and how can you mitigate the threats and stay safe?
