Questão de InglêsInterpretação de texto | Reading comprehension

    In the United Kingdom (UK), cyberattacks continue to
have serious consequences for government organisations, public
services and people’s lives, undermining the value for money of
government expenditure in affected services and systems. 

    The cyber threat to the government is severe and
advancing quickly. In response, the Cabinet Office has published
and started leading work to implement the first cyber strategy for
government. 

    However, progress is slow and cyber incidents with a
significant impact on government and public services are likely
to happen regularly, not least because of the growing cyber
threat. The government’s cyber resilience levels are lower than it
previously estimated. The resilience of the hundreds of ageing
legacy IT systems that departments still use is likely to be worse. 

    To avoid serious incidents, build resilience and protect the
value for money of its operations, government must catch up with
the acute cyber threat it faces. The government will continue to
find it difficult to do so until it successfully addresses the longstanding shortage of cyber skills, strengthens accountability for
cyber risk, and better manages the risks posed by legacy IT.
