A press release is not news. It is a statement by its sender about itself, written to get published. Each item therefore names who stands behind it and what could be verified.

The national security team CSIRT recorded 3,650 cyber incidents from the start of the year to 6 October 2026, more than in the whole previous year. By its forecast, the intensity of phishing attacks will double this year compared with 2024. The platform Pro podnikavé therefore offers small and medium-sized firms a free programme, PrevenITvka: an automatic security check run from an e-mail address and eight weeks of educational content with videos and webinars.

Ipsos survey: nearly two-thirds of parents who helped children with housing handed over property early

According to a survey by Ipsos for Broker Consulting, nearly two-thirds of parents who have already helped their children with housing say they gave them part of the property that would otherwise have passed to them as an inheritance. Most often this was cash or money from a savings account. Almost a quarter named a property in which they themselves had lived, and shares in properties also appear. The survey was released on 3 November 2026.

G2A.COM a Newzoo

73% of active gamers wait for a price drop on new games, study says

A study by G2A.COM and the analytics firm Newzoo finds that 73% of active players of premium PC and console games consider new titles overpriced at launch and wait for a discount before buying. The survey covered 6,166 respondents from the United Kingdom, the USA, Germany, Poland, Brazil and Saudi Arabia, all players aged 18 to 55 who had bought or played at least one AAA or AA game in the past year.

Editor's note. G2A.COM, an online marketplace for digital entertainment, sells games itself and so has an interest in how players respond to prices. The 73% figure applies only to players who bought or played an AAA or AA game in the past year, not to all gamers.
