FaatGo Officially Launches: A Hong Kong-Based Legal Platform Specializing in Criminal Defence and Injury Compensation
The platform offers in-depth legal insights and resources in two major areas. First, FaatGo covers a wide range of common criminal offences, including indecent assault, physical assault, criminal intimidation, theft, money laundering, and drug-related offences. Each topic is explained clearly and precisely, with a focus on legal procedures, sentencing considerations, and practical steps to be taken after arrest or charge.
Second, the platform also features comprehensive guides on work injury and traffic accident compensation, helping victims understand their entitlements, calculation methods, documentation requirements, and potential for pursuing additional damages beyond basic insurance. The content is developed in consultation with legal practitioners and aims to simplify what are often highly complex legal processes.
All materials are published in Traditional Chinese and tailored to the Hong Kong legal context. Legal information is structured for clarity and ease of understanding, without the use of excessive legal jargon. The platform is specifically designed to empower users to understand their legal position and take action accordingly, whether they are facing prosecution or seeking rightful compensation.
FaatGo also provides a free legal consultation form, allowing individuals to submit a summary of their case. The internal team will assess the information and match the user with a suitable lawyer for an initial legal opinion. The service is free of charge, with no commissions or obligations, and all consultations are handled directly by qualified legal professionals. A verified criminal defence lawyer directory is also available for those who wish to engage legal representation independently.
Since its soft launch, FaatGo has already supported multiple individuals, including families seeking mitigation strategies for loved ones facing charges, and injured workers who were initially unaware of their full compensation rights. These early successes reflect the platform's commitment to delivering fair, unbiased, and timely legal assistance to those who need it most.
FaatGo operates under the principle that legal knowledge should not be limited to a privileged few, but rather made available and understandable to all. By providing regularly updated articles, case studies, and consultation tools, the platform aims to improve public legal literacy and ensure that legal support is accessible in moments of real need.

AI-Driven Cyber Attacks and Supply Chain Vulnerabilities Escalate Risk Landscape in Australia, Aon Report Finds
SYDNEY, AUSTRALIA - Media OutReach Newswire - 31 July 2025 - Aon plc (NYSE: AON), a leading global professional services firm, has released the Australia-specific findings from its 2025 Cyber Risk Report. The report highlights the growing impact of artificial intelligence (AI)-enabled cyber attacks and the increasing exposure created by third-party technology supply chains. The report reveals that Australian organisations are facing a new frontier of cyber risk, where traditional defences are being outpaced by the speed and sophistication of AI-driven threats. 'AI is no longer a future threat—it's a present-day reality,' said Adam Peckman, head of risk consulting and cyber solutions in APAC and global head of cyber risk consulting at Aon. 'We're seeing relatively unsophisticated actors now wielding tools that rival state-sponsored capabilities. The barrier to entry has dropped dramatically, and the velocity of attacks is only increasing.' One of the most concerning developments is the emergence of AI-powered social engineering attacks. Last year saw an incident involving the theft of USD $25 million from a large UK engineering firm through a deepfake-enabled scam—an attack that has since been replicated onshore in Australia at smaller financial scale. These incidents underscore the growing accessibility and replicability of such tactics. In addition to AI threats, the report identifies technology supply chains as a critical vulnerability. A number of high-profile Australian breaches have stemmed from third-party compromises, where attackers exploit weaker security standards in vendors with privileged access to client systems. 'Organisations must start treating their vendors as part of their own attack surface,' added Joerg Schmitz, Cyber Risk Quantification and Analytics Leader for APAC at Aon. 'The most lucrative attacks are those that can be scaled across multiple targets through a single compromised supplier. This is a wake-up call for Australian businesses to reassess how they manage third-party risk.' Despite continued investment in cyber security, the report warns that core controls are being circumvented or rendered obsolete by evolving tactics. The use of AI to optimise every stage of the attack chain—from reconnaissance to execution—demands a fundamental rethink of defensive strategies. Aon's 2025 Cyber Risk Report draws on CyQu data from over 3,000 clients globally and analyses more than 1,400 cyber events to identify emerging trends. The platform enables organisations to benchmark their cyber maturity, align insurance and security strategies, and make more informed, data-driven decisions.

The rebrand marks a strategic shift, strengthening PERSOL's ability to scale with consistency while responding to the unique dynamics of each market. By aligning local insight with regional reach, PERSOL empowers organisations and professionals to navigate a workforce landscape shaped by transformation, technology, and mobility.
