A new UK parliamentary report recommends that businesses face escalating fines for cybersecurity breaches, with the biggest penalties reserved for firms that succumb to "plain vanilla" intrusions, such as the SQL attack on telco TalkTalk. The heaviest penalties should be levied against companies that experience "continued vulnerabilities and repeated attacks", the report from the UK's Culture, Media and Sport Committee notes.
