Suitably, June\u2019s issue of IT Pro 20\/20 is all about cyber security. We\u2019ve pulled together stories that examine the current state of the industry, including how current technology is being used and how future trends are likely to reshape our understanding of cyber security.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Our lead feature looks at the rise of quantum computing,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.itpro.co.uk\/technology\/31818\/what-is-quantum-computing\" class=\"polaris__link -is-external\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">still a fledgeling area of the tech industry<\/a>\u00a0but one that promises to upend cyber security as we know it. Yet, these remain promises, and it\u2019s unclear whether we will ever see the future that proponents of the technology envisage.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span><span>Turning to trends that are a little more pressing today, we also share an industry hacking story that should serve as a lesson in how not to get hacked. I won\u2019t spoil the story here, but I will say it involves a LinkedIn account, a gullible PA, a chief executive\u2019s shoe size, and Tottenham Hotspur Football Club.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>In our last exclusive article, we question whether there is, in fact, any weight at all behind the idea that remote working poses a danger to a business\u2019 cyber security, or if these threats have been somewhat exaggerated. It&#8217;s likely to be a contentious issue for many, so we&#8217;ll leave it up to you to decide.<\/span><\/p>\n<table border=\"0\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td><a href=\"https:\/\/dennistrk.cvtr.io\/click?lid=15427&amp;pid=48&amp;sid=\" >DOWNLOAD THE JUNE ISSUE OF IT PRO 20\/20 HERE<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p><span><\/p>\n<div id=\"file-7725\" class=\"file file-image file-image-jpeg file-content-original\">\n<div class=\"content\">    <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn2.cloudpro.co.uk\/sites\/cloudprod7\/files\/2020\/06\/itpro_2020_june_cover_teaser.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/>  <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><\/span><\/p>\n<p>The next IT Pro 20\/20 will be available on Friday\u00a031 July.
