## Press
- [When protest movements enter the workplace \- Toro Solutions](https://www.torosolutions.co.uk/press/when-protest-movements-enter-the-workplace-toro-solutions/): In this piece, Gavin Wilson argues that workplace activism isn’t something organisations should fear but it does need to be managed\. Most employee protest is lawful and often healthy but in sensitive environments strong personal convictions combined with access to systems or data can create real risk\. Add in the influence of online narratives and external actors and internal tensions can escalate quickly\. His focus is on getting the balance right: allowing open disagreement while tightening access, spotting early behavioural changes and making sure concerns are raised early\. Ultimately resilience comes down to whether organisations are prepared for when belief, access and pressure collide\.
- [Is cybersecurity’s primary attack surface people?](https://www.torosolutions.co.uk/press/is-cybersecuritys-primary-attack-surface-people/): Technology alone cannot stop today’s cyber threats\. While organisations continue to invest in advanced security tools, attackers increasingly target the people behind them\. In this interview, Peter Connolly, CEO of Toro Solutions, explains why human behaviour has become the primary attack surface in modern security, how criminals exploit trust through social engineering and AI\-powered attacks, and why building a culture of resilience is critical to protecting organisations\. He also explores the convergence of cyber, physical and human security, and the leadership capabilities needed to stay ahead of an evolving threat landscape\.
- [Control of your inbox is often enough](https://www.torosolutions.co.uk/press/control-of-your-inbox-is-often-enough/): Your inbox is more than a place for messages \- it's the key to your digital identity\. From banking and payroll to healthcare and legal services, control of your email account can give cybercriminals access to almost every aspect of your life\. In this practical guide, Katie Barnett, Director of Cyber Security at Toro Solutions, explains why your inbox is one of your most valuable assets and outlines the simple steps that can dramatically reduce your risk, from enabling passkeys and multi\-factor authentication to using password managers and separating email accounts by purpose\.
- [What World Cup scams tell us about modern security threats](https://www.torosolutions.co.uk/press/what-world-cup-scams-tell-us-about-modern-security-threats/): In this piece, Katie Barnett explores why World Cup ticket scams are no longer just about stealing money\. Using the FIFA World Cup 2026 as an example, she explains how modern fraud campaigns increasingly form part of wider attack chains that target credentials, identities, payment information and organisations themselves\. She examines how cyber, people and physical security risks intersect during major global events, and why organisations should treat these scams as a timely reminder to strengthen resilience rather than simply avoid fake tickets\.
- [Supply chain resilience is about managing persistent uncertainty – and needs active governance](https://www.torosolutions.co.uk/press/supply-chain-resilience-is-about-managing-persistent-uncertainty-and-needs-active-governance/): In this piece, Gavin Wilson argues that supply chains can no longer be treated as purely commercial functions but must be managed as core risk systems\. With geopolitical tension, regulation, climate disruption and hidden dependencies all shaping outcomes, disruption is now constant rather than exceptional\. He highlights how many organisations remain exposed due to limited visibility and fragmented ownership, often reacting only once issues arise\. His focus is on active governance, deeper supplier insight and earlier involvement of risk functions, ensuring resilience is built in before disruption hits rather than after\.
