Russian Invasion of Ukraine – Statement from Fordway

Mar 25, 2022

Following Russia’s armed invasion of Ukraine, many organisations are anticipating an increased risk of cyber-attacks and security incidents.

We assure you that Fordway remains vigilant and continue to assess and minimise cyber security risk, internally and for our customers, with a particular focus on the following areas:

Monitoring and alerts to any unusual or unauthorised activity

  • Ensuring strong access controls for assets and where possible, enforcing MFA to services
  • Proactive incident management including 24/7 monitoring and response
  • Disaster Recovery and Business Continuity plans are in place and tested, in the event of a disruption to service
  • Heightened awareness and education of all staff via our Cyber Security e-learning programme

To any customers, partners and colleagues who may be affected by these appalling events in Ukraine, our thoughts are with you at this difficult time.

Should you require any assistance, please contact our support team or your Service Delivery Manager.
