  Hey everyone, I'm Drex and. This is the Two Minute Drill, where I do three hot stories twice a week. It's all part of the 229 Cyber and Risk Community here at This Week Health.

Happy Friday. Hope you had a great turkey day yesterday and thanks for joining me here today. Here's some stuff you might want to know about. The NHS Trust responsible for a group of hospitals in northwest England has declared a major cybersecurity incident. The nature of the incident hasn't been disclosed, but outpatient appointments have been cancelled and patients are being asked not to come to the World University Teaching Hospital unless they have a genuine emergency.

This is one of a series of incidents that have impacted the UK's health services this year. Similar to the U. S.? Politicians there intend to introduce a new cyber security and resilience bill to parliament soon. There's a story on CSO online about the challenges of being a cyber security leader. CISOs are under a lot of pressure and the job can lead to burnout and drinking and drug abuse and isolation.

The article dives into several surveys on the topic and includes some real world stories about security leaders and how they've dealt with the stress. You have one of the toughest jobs in the world.

Microsoft Teams users will soon be able to use cloned versions of their voices to translate a conversation in real time into another language.
