Andy Hague and Usman Hamid will speak at a Robert Walters breakfast seminar on protecting companies and customers from changing cyber security threats. Andy has over 10 years of advising organizations on security strategy and frequently speaks nationally. Usman helped Redfern Travel invest in technology and become the first travel firm to achieve a Cyber Essentials Plus distinction. The event on May 15th will provide breakfast, networking, and talks from 7:30-9:30am in Manchester for senior IT professionals.
The Institute of Directors, in partnership with the Cabinet Office is publishing some long overdue cyber guidance for business leaders early March 2016. Following the publication we welcome you to join us for the first of our 2016 programme of non-technical seminars on “Optimising Cyber Resilience” that will help you create your individual cyber action plan. The knowledge and know-how we will share is now essential for the good governance of every modern business.
With concern mounting over cyber risks, organizations will evaluate fresh approaches to ensuring boards are well-informed and comfortable making strategic decisions. Expect the appointment of specialist, nonexecutive cyber directors and the formation of dedicated cyber-risk committees, similar to audit committees, with independent advisers. Regulators also may pursue the concept of “cyber competent” people as a requirement for boards.
