Firms across Suffolk, Norfolk and Essex are highly vulnerable to cyber attack and are failing to take the problem seriously, a new poll suggests.

The Ipswich office of financial advisers Grant Thornton found half of companies across the East of England which it polled did not have a strategy in place to mitigate the risk of cybercrime and keep the business going in the event of an attack.
The survey, conducted at a series of cyber security awareness events held by the firm across the region, revealed that although two thirds of companies attending had been targeted by cybercrime, only 53% had developed strategies against attacks and just 50% had business continuity plans should they fall victim to a breach, leaving them highly vulnerable.
