The ransomware epidemic continues, but Microsoft hopes Windows 11 will raise corporate security

While security issues continue to plague the industry, the green revolution rolls forward. Welcome to this month's Big Picture.

In this series, Delta Site Editor Tom Allen looks back at the technology industry's most important stories in the last month, through five different lenses.

Security is still a key issue, with another large company - meat packer JBS - falling victim to ransomware and paying to bring its services back online. Microsoft hopes that its new operating system - now confirmed as Windows 11, with higher security requirements than past versions - will help to fight this digital epidemic.

Environmental issues are now widely accepted as intertwined with the corporate world, and there were plenty of green announcements last month - starting with a group of tech giants coming out in support of mandatory reporting on climate issues (which Facebook is already doing voluntarily).

There's more important news covered in this month's Big Picture, including analysis of recent EU and UK data sharing moves. Watch the video above to find out more.
