Cyber risk is a boardroom priority, not just an IT issue

The National Cyber Security Centre’s Annual Review 2025 highlights a growing threat to UK organisations:

“Cyber risk is no longer just an IT issue – it’s a boardroom priority.”

With a 50% rise in highly significant cyber incidents this year, businesses are being urged to act before the breach happens. Cyber attacks now affect every aspect of operations, from productivity to profit and reputation.

OCM understands that cyber risk doesn’t stop at live networks. Redundant and outdated IT hardware can still expose your organisation to cyber attacks if not handled properly. Read the full review.

Our secure data erasure services permanently wipe sensitive data from devices, eliminating the risk of old hardware being reused as an attack vector. We use certified tools such as Blancco and operate under leading standards including ISO 27001 and ADISA ITAD Essentials.

Failing to securely dispose of your IT assets increases your cyber risk. Whether you’re a small business or a large organisation, taking preventative action today is key to future resilience.

Explore our full IT asset disposal services to protect your business long after devices leave your building.

Cyber security is now central to governance. Don’t wait for the breach – take action and reduce your cyber risk with OCM.
