Your business is a target. Hackers only need one weakness.

A single cyberattack on one of the UK's property developers could expose investor funds, plot reservations and buyer deposits, halt day-to-day operations and trigger regulatory reporting, fines and lasting reputational damage. Small firms are not too small to be targeted. Automated attacks scan every UK business for an easy way in.

Why property developers are targeted: Developers collect reservation fees and coordinate with many solicitors, which makes deposit interception highly profitable.
