Cyber Security Tenders

2024 will continue to see the defence industry drive growth across the cyber sector.

Public sector organisations across the world are likely to have a substantial pot of money to spend on cyber security – which is particularly important given the growing number of cyber attacks.

Previous cyber attacks on government and public sector bodies have shown that their IT systems are often extremely fragile, vulnerable and easily exploited. To tackle this, many are investing in their cyber security strategy.
