UK critical infrastructure hit by 200 cyber incidents in a year, agency says

The UK's National Cyber Security Centre reports that critical national infrastructure suffered more than 200 cyber incidents over the past year, with state-linked actors—primarily Russia, China, and Iran—responsible for roughly three-quarters of the attacks. The NCSC's chief executive noted that AI is expected to compound the threat landscape going forward, lowering the barrier for sophisticated intrusions. The scale and state attribution of these incidents signals that infrastructure security is no longer a technical concern operating at the margins of national policy.
