We wanted to pass on an important security warning that our IT provider, Tech Wizard, has made us aware of.

The National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC) has issued a warning about a critical security issue affecting PHP, which is used by many websites.

If you have a website, we’d recommend checking with your web developer or hosting provider that it is secure and any required updates have been applied.

More information is available from the NCSC here.

If you’re unsure what to do, TechWizard can help. They are also currently offering businesses a free cyber security audit to help identify wider security risks.

We thought it was worth sharing so you can check your own website and pass the warning on to anyone else who may be affected.
