BA confiya cyber attack - or as they call it an IT breach.

In order for a capital raising process to be initiated there has to be a reason in the first instance, so that puts an end to that silly notion, eh?

In order for something to be considered a

' busted flush' it would have to be considered compleaty worthless, a far cry from what DT represents. The phrase is more apt in describing you though, christopheles.

Being in the same industry doesn't guarantee success or failure for all participants. I believe that Darktace possesses the most advanced technology, developed at Cambridge, which will play a crucial role in determining which companies seeking protection against cyber attacks will trust. It can be argued that our counterparts in another country are observing with jealousy, and perhaps that's why some obstacles have been intentionally created. If SentinelOne are lossing ground this could be a signal to the changing order.

' ITV Bottoms , to surface'

Oxymoron or innuendo?

Difficult to say, but probably not.

If it touches 60, I'm topping up!

One would hope Carolyn is woke, not just to annoy the anti- woke brigade, because those qualities make for winners. Few of the avid GB news and Daily Mail swallowers even know the true meaning and origins of the word.

Remember, always better Woke than Gammon!

Quite, B/E

Apologies for the last post containing incomplete words, due to predictive text.

The only thing that makes me laugh is how this nonevent is top of the new. One doesn’t buy the ‘he’s and extraordinary talent’ mantra, who will be difficult to replace. On the face of it, he’s nobody special. The must be loads of possibles read to take up the slack. The public will soon forget him. Yesterday’s news tomorrow’s chip wrapper. Good buying opportunity coming!

Is it accurate to say the macro environment is weak as reported by some? And, if IT issues are the new cyber attacks there's a need to start singing from the same hymn sheet.

According to others 'the need for strong cybersecurity measures has sharpened significantly'

Yep, there's a new way of describing a cyber attack, - to save face. It's now more often than not an 'IT issue'.

'No doubt'

Schofield could be seen as a manipulative individual, and it's likely that the young man mentioned was using him to advance in his career. It's not surprising that Holly strongly dislikes him. In a way, this situation is actually beneficial because it's high time for some of the older figures, including Schofield, Ant, and Dec, to move on and make room for new faces. I still have complete faith in Carolyn, she'll sort it - no dubt.

No EY news as yet, so no obvious reasons.

Just the usual blurb from sites like Alpha:

Mlong, 'Do they supply the cyber security already??'

Who knows?

Even if it were to be the case, the damage would possibly have been much worse and prolonged without cyber security in place. Then there's the likelihood that if AI was in place then the chances of the same type of breach happening again is significantly lessened, due to AI's learning capabilities.

British Airways has apologised after an IT issue caused the cancellations of domestic and European flights on Thursday, as Britain heads into the Bank Holiday weekend.

A statement from British Airways released just before 10pm on Thursday said “we’re aware of a technical issue, which we have been working hard to fix”.

You don't need to be Sherlock Holmes!

The Dame has played a blinder!

Having the courage and vision to get ITVX in the game at this time is a dazzlingly good piece of play.

Netflix has started its crackdown on password sharing in major markets including the UK. The move is intended to boost subscribers, or will subscribers just move?

Ant and Dec have certainly been good over the years, but now they’re past their prime. Reality tv has been done and done, mot much more mileage there either. ITV know this is the cusp of new ideas and new personalities. One has no doubt the Dame will be on to it. We couldn’t be in better hands IMO.
