The WannaCry ransomware attack was the biggest test of the year for the UK’s new cybersecurity body.

The National Cyber Security Centre’s (NCSC) annual review marks a year since it started work, although it was officially opened in February. In those 12 months, the NCSC says 1,131 cyber incidents have been reported to it.
