Cyber Fraud – How to combat it

The rise in the instances of cyber fraud – made all the more difficult to detect thanks to the use of AI - has taken many of us by surprise.

Should it have done, though? Surely, since the advent of email there have been risks associated with electronic communications – but we seem to be, still, a very trusting nation.
