Why Cyber Resilience Can’t Be Audited Once a Year: Lessons from the UK Cyber Action Plan
Moving from box‑ticking compliance to real‑world cyber readiness Written by Richard Puckey Cyber security has a confidence problem For years, many organisations have taken comfort in annual cyber audits, certifications and compliance checklists. Pass the audit, tick the box and move on. On paper, everything looks secure. The problem? Cyber threats don’t operate on an annual cycle.

The Cyber Security & Resilience Bill increases pressure on organisations to tighten identity governance and reduce avoidable attack surfaces. This directly impacts Microsoft 365 environments, where dormant or “zombie” accounts become a material compliance and security…
