LEGAL COMMENT: Crowdstrike/Windows IT Outage Following last week's Crowdstrike Windows IT outage, Robert Griffiths, Partner in Mishcon de Reya who specialises in technology disputes, commented: "Major global IT outages, such as today's Crowdstrike Windows Outage, often give rise to claims and litigation further down the line, as organisarions seek to recover any losses that they may have suffered as a result of the downtime. The actions that businesses take in the early stages of any IT outage can be critical in any litigation that follows. "There are a number of steps that can be taken in the first hours and days in order to maximise the chances of successful outcome.

The passing of the Bill has the potential to catch out a phenomenally large number of businesses and spaces* that are publicly accessible, Building Design and Management Ltd. (BDM) warns. Should the Bill be passed, it means it will become a legal obligation, and puts a 'Protect Duty' on businesses and organisations that are publicly accessible, that they fully safeguard and protect the security and safety of people through a deep and thorough understanding of their premises and variety of measures. Cyber Security and Resilience Bill Following on from the King’s Speech, cyber expert Guy Golan, CEO, Executive Chairman and Co-Founder of global cybersecurity firm Performanta, comments on the new Cyber Security and Resilience Bill the King introduced. “Following the King’s Speech and the introduction of the new Cyber Security and Resilience Bill, I commend the King and the government for bringing this issue to the forefront of British politics and governance. Our digital footprint has a growing impact on our physical and emotional presence, it affects people’s lives, emotions and decisions, and it is important that it is addressed at both the public and the private level. 3DX-Ray UK Defence contract award
