Overview

Cyber security incidents are a case of “when” not “if” for organisations today.  In this interactive session you’ll be exposed to the realities of a high impact cyber event.

How well do you and your organisation stay afloat with decision making and operational response, in the midst of uncertainty, external inquiries, a myriad of distractions, and competing time pressures? 

Led by an expert in incident response and cyber security operations, this session will prompt you to consider your governance role in cyber security and will provide you with valuable insights to help you retain decision-making composure in the face of a cyber-threat.

This session was a sell-out at our 2023 IoD Leadership Conference and spaces are limited, so prompt registration is recommended.
