Insights by Echo AI

Buckingham Palace is bolstering its cybersecurity measures following admissions of outdated systems and concerns over growing Russian cyber threats. The upgrade, set to cost around £99.9 million, is part of a larger plan to modernize the palace's infrastructure, including replacing obsolete systems and installing energy-efficient heating. This move comes after a 2023 cyberattack took the royal family's official website offline for over an hour. The upgrade is also part of a broader increase in the Sovereign Grant, reflecting King Charles III's more active international commitments.
