Synopsis
Join Deloitte and the British Computer Society, the Chartered Institute for IT, for a Breakfast Briefing on Navigating the New Age of Cyber Threats. In today's digital landscape, cyber security is no longer a matter of "if" but "when." While robust defences are crucial, even the most fortified systems can be vulnerable to sophisticated, targeted attacks.
This event, the first in a series co-hosted by Deloitte and the British Computer Society, offers invaluable insights into building true cyber resilience. Go beyond traditional disaster recovery planning. Discover how to:
- Prepare for the reality of a targeted attack.
- Navigate the immediate aftermath and mitigate damage.
- Develop a robust recovery strategy to get your business back on track
Hear first-hand accounts from those who have faced the storm and emerged stronger. Our expert speakers will share their experiences, lessons learned, and practical steps you can take to fortify your organisation's resilience.
This session is crucial for leaders responsible for safeguarding their organisation's digital future, including:
- Chief Information Officers (CIOs)
- Chief Information Security Officers (CISOs)
- IT Directors and Managers
- Security Architects and Analysts
We look forward to welcoming you to our event. Register today and equip yourself with the knowledge and strategies to build a resilient future.
