The effect leaving the EU will have on UK cyber crime
The sharing of technical intelligence, personally identifiable information and law enforcement could suffer. There are entities out there that will hopefully continue to collaborate and share technical intelligence and help identify potential threats, however, the sharing of information and identifying criminals could become troublesome regardless of the UK’s ability to instigate sufficient measures to safeguard sensitive information. Law enforcement will no doubt become difficult. Reduced cooperation is almost a guarantee and prosecutions will fall, the only solution is separate agreements with member states.
The best way UK businesses can defend themselves from this threat is by following 11 key rules:
1. Keep your operating systems updated and regularly patched.
2. Have a firewall and software that defends against
3. Use the latest version of your browsing software.
4. Encrypt wireless networks.
5. Set up administrative rights so only authorised individuals can install and uninstall
6. Use filtering that controls data access.
7. Block access to restricted sites with internet filters - this will prevent employees and hackers uploading data to areas such as cloud storage.
8. Remove or disable USB ports. This will prevent the (more often than not unintentional) uploading of malicious material.
9. Enforce strict password policies, using a combination of letters, numbers and special characters.
10. Produce a disaster recovery plan, in preparation for the worst case scenario
11. Encrypt all drives, folders, and files.
Using data-loss prevention and risk-assessment programmes can drastically increase a network's security by identifying potential weaknesses early on, thus preventing them from being exploited by criminals or the door being opened accidentally by an unsuspecting employee.Brexit has raised our awareness of the realism of cybercrime and the implications it could have on the UK, Europe, and the rest of the world.

Here I am talking about the Brexit deal, It has. The United Kingdom voted to leave the European Union in 2016 and officially left the trading bloc - its nearest and important trading partner - on 31 January 2020. The deal contains new rules for how the United Kingdom and European Union will live, work, and trade together. While the United Kingdom was in the European Union, companies could buy and sell goods across European Union borders without paying taxes and there was no control on the number of things that could be traded.
