- On Friday 26 September, the Tweedbank Care Village project celebrated a major milestone with a public engagement session and stakeholder event. Attendees, including residents, families, community members, local school children and project partners were treated to an exclusive first look at detailed site plans, architectural renderings, and the thoughtfully designed colour schemes that will define the new facility. Our officers were on hand to share insights into the cutting-edge technologies being considered to enhance care delivery — sparking conversations about innovation, dignity, and promoting independence.

- Picture this: you’ve just logged into your online banking. You enter your username and password, but before you can access your account, you receive a prompt on your phone asking you to confirm your identity. You type in the code or tap ‘approve’ and only then are you granted entry. That second step might feel like a minor inconvenience, but it’s one of the most effective safeguards against cyber crime: multi-factor authentication (MFA).

Modern supply chains are more exposed than ever, facing a broad spectrum of risks, from economic uncertainty and political instability to natural disasters and supplier failures, all of which can have a significant impact on operational continuity and resilience. In this article, however, we’re focusing on one particularly urgent threat: cyber risk within your supply chain.
