The Breeze

The Cyber Security and Resilience Bill just moved a step closer to becoming law. Its House of Lords committee stage began on 1 September 2026, and while it's not yet an Act, peers have already tabled 65 amendments several aimed squarely at the businesses that supply essential services, not just the ones providing them directly.‍If your business depends on IT or connectivity providers to keep running (and whose doesn't), this Bill is worth understanding now, not once it's law.

In this episode, we sit down with industry experts to explore how businesses can turn their connectivity and cybersecurity foundations into a true competitive advantage. From real-world challenges to practical strategies, this conversation highlights how organisations can build resilience, improve performance, and unlock new opportunities in an increasingly digital world.

For most organisations, the data that underpins their operations – customer records, financial transactions, service platforms – is the most tangible asset and central to how the business functions. While hardware and infrastructure can be replaced, the disruption caused by losing access to critical data can be far more significant. Protecting that data, and the services it enables, has therefore become a priority across sectors.

Cyber security should now be treated at the same priority level as business connectivity.

This community connection will help support their mission and ensure their members have reliable access to the digital services they need.
