We will continue to see lots of change in the Data, AI and Cyber sphere over 2026. The Data (Use and Access) Act 2025 will be fully brought into force this year, which in particular could result in organisations seeing an increase in data protection complaints, as well as higher penalties for direct marketing and cookies breaches. The new Cyber Security and Resilience (Network and Information Systems) Bill introduced in Parliament at the end of last year will also be debated and likely passed. This will expand the scope of the existing Network and Information Systems Regulations 2018 and introduce stricter incident reporting obligations for those organisations in-scope (including key suppliers). And these are just a few examples.
