How can cyber safety feel tangible for 14–16-year-olds? This February, Harpal Chima, one of our UK ambassadors, visited Long Close School in Slough, Berkshire, to chat with GCSE (General Certificate of Secondary Education) Business students about the evolution of data protection and how companies respond to emerging cyber threats. The session bridged curriculum theory with real-world application—demonstrating how innovation, resilience, and responsible technology shape modern organizations. Proud to see industry expertise supporting the next generation of business leaders and digital citizens. 🔐📚 👉 Want to learn more about it? https://lnkd.in/gmV6T3zQ #AcronisCyberFoundationProgram

It was a privilege to participate in the Department for Science, Innovation and Technology Software Security Ambassador Scheme launch event with Sage as one of the founding Ambassadors - an important step in strengthening the UK’s digital resilience. With the Software Security Code of Practice now established, the scheme brings together experts and leaders from government and industry to champion secure‑by‑design software practices, improving transparency across digital supply chains and raise the cyber security baseline across the UK technology landscape. What I value most about this programme is its focus on root‑cause improvements over surface‑level fixes - it’s about building an environment where secure software development becomes the norm and where barriers to adoption are removed through true partnership. A huge thank you to Lorna Kirkby, the DSIT team and Baroness Lloyd of Effra CBE for their leadership and inspiration – and to Gustavo Zeidan who participated alongside other panellists so passionately committed to driving meaningful impact for a more resilient, secure and continuously thriving UK digital economy together. https://lnkd.in/ePE35wtz https://lnkd.in/eKXqCBRG

Just wanted to highlight two excellent EUC specific case studies that we have designed and delivered here at ET Works within the education sector (more details on the website). ✅ Coleg Gwent - Hybrid Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops with Citrix Cloud and NetScaler, running on the Nutanix Cloud Platform. Enabled 1,000+ users to switch to remote learning in days with award-winning performance and security. ✅ Robert Gordon University - Nutanix Frame on Nutanix AHV with demanding apps like AutoCAD and Revit. Browser-only access, deployed in days, near-zero support calls. 💡 From Citrix to Nutanix to modern DaaS, we help institutions deliver seamless, secure user experiences anywhere. 📩 Ready to talk all things EUC?

The UK’s new Cyber Resilience Bill signals a major shift: security is no longer about being “safe today,” but about proving you can stay secure as threats evolve. As the BI Foresight article highlights, the Bill doesn’t mention quantum at all, yet its focus on long‑term resilience puts future cryptographic risk firmly on the agenda. With the rise of “harvest now, decrypt later” tactics, organisations need to think beyond compliance and start planning for crypto‑agility and quantum‑resilience now. At Entrust, we see this shift every day: protecting data for decades requires stronger keys, agile cryptography, and a long‑term trust strategy. Full article: https://lnkd.in/emD3hjzS
