Almost £500m has been invested in British cyber security startups in 2020 in spite of the economic slump caused by the Covid-19 coronavirus pandemic, with the investment well on track to breaking the funding record of £521m set just last year.
This is according to statistics produced by government backed security programme Lorca – the London Office for Rapid Cybersecurity Advancement – which has just published its report, The Lorca report 2020, analysing the UK’s security startup ecosystem.
