Interview: Critical local infrastructure is missing link in UK cyber resilience | Computer Weekly
""We need to be thinking about what would happen if multiple attacks happened at the same time across the city region - and the human impact of not being able to do your job properly, not being able to travel around and not being able to deliver public services.""
