The National Cyber Security Centre is urging UK organisations to maintain a sustainable strengthened cyber security posture, during this extended period of heightened cyber threat.
The vast majority of organisations in the UK rely on digital technology to function and transact business. Good cyber security protects that ability to function, and ensures organisations can exploit the opportunities that technology can bring. Cyber security is therefore central to an organisation’s health and resilience, this places it firmly within the responsibility of the Board.
This session will focus on NCSC’s free Board Toolkit.
The NCSC has produced the Board Toolkit to encourage essential discussions about cyber security to take place, between the board and their technical experts. Board members don’t need to be technical experts, but they need to know enough about cyber security to be able to have a fluent conversation with their technical experts, and understand the right questions to ask during this period of heightened cyber threat.
The digital loft is open to all but we would actively encourage board members & technical experts who brief board members, to attend this interactive panel discussion. The panel will include NCSC’s Chief Operating Officer Paul Maddinson & private sector board members from Becrypt Ltd and DXC Technology, who will provide case studies on their use of the Board Toolkit.
Tuesday 11th October 2022, 10am – 11.30am
