Hammersmith and Fulham Council says it has applied &#8216;aggressive anti-phishing and anti-spam policies and enhanced firewall rules that block suspicious traffic&#8217; to combat the attempted attacks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It is understood the 20,000-daily figure is not an unusual rate for an organisation of its size and nature, with phishing one of the main issues faced. This is when fake communications, whether by email, social media or other means, are sent to try and draw personal information or money from the victim.<sup><\/sup> &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A spokesperson for the umbrella group London Councils said several boroughs in the capital have been subjected to major attacks in recent years, sometimes leading to significant disruption and costs. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Local Democracy Reporting Service (LDRS) recently reported the council is expecting to spend hundreds of thousands of pounds more than planned recovering from the attack.<sup><\/sup> In July last year, the Information Commissioner\u2019s Office (ICO) rebuked the local authority for a \u2018lack of proper security and processes to protect personal data\u2019.<sup><\/sup> The council disagreed with the findings. Transport for London (TfL) was also hit by a large cyber attack last year, forcing it to close many online services for months.<sup><\/sup> &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Council documents detailed how additional investment is earmarked for 2025\/26 to improve cyber security processes and infrastructure alongside regular updates to staff. Cyber security spend is included within the \u00a3124,000 earmarked for the council\u2019s Digital Inclusion Strategy, which will also fund activities to help residents improve computer literacy. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Cllr Rowan Ree, Cabinet Member for Finance and Reform, acknowledged phishing is a significant threat, noting not just staff but councillors are likely to have received \u2018odd emails\u2019 over the last year. \u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He said:<em> \u201cWe\u2019re very alive to the threat of this. There are 20,000 attempted cyber attacks on the council every day. That shows the scale of the challenge that we\u2019re facing. We have to make sure that everybody who\u2019s in a role where you\u2019re susceptible to get these sorts of emails has got the proper understanding so that they can combat cyber attacks like this.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A spokesperson for Hammersmith and Fulham Council said:<em> \u201cWe have applied aggressive anti-phishing and anti-spam policies and enhanced firewall rules that block suspicious traffic.\u201d \u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A London Councils spokesperson said<em>: \u201cEvery London borough is vigilant to the risk of cyberattacks, which can range in severity and impact. In recent years we\u2019ve seen several boroughs across the capital subjected to major attacks, sometimes leading to considerable disruption to services and costs to the boroughs. \u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>\u201cAll London boroughs invest in cyber security tools and processes to keep their systems safe. We also collaborate to share insights and intelligence about potential threats to maintain the smooth-running of local services.\u201d <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Image source: <a href=\"https:\/\/pixabay.com\/vectors\/cybersecurity-computer-security-6949298\/\">Pixabay<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncsc.gov.uk\/collection\/phishing-scams#:~:text=What%20is%20phishing%3F,calls%20to%20trick%20their%20victims.\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ncsc.gov.uk\/collection\/phishing-scams#:~:text=What%20is%20phishing%3F,calls%20to%20trick%20their%20victims.\"><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A West London council has revealed it is hit by around 20,000 attempted cyber attacks every day.
