Cyber Webinar series launches on 7 July

Ahead of the newly launched International Cyber Expo, a new webinar series demonstrating the importance of cyber resilience will welcome industry experts across four separate sessions on 7 July.

Opening the series, security journalist Philip Ingram will be joined by Ciaran Martin, former head of the National Cyber Security Centre to explore the realities of the current cyber risk and give tips on Understanding the Cyber Landscape, threats, opportunities and making the best use of NCSC and other public resources.

The cyber world by its very nature is complex and the legal and regulatory world adds another layer of complexity which is often overlooked.  Dean Armstrong QC - Head of Chambers 36 Group and Philip Ingram MBE will continue the discussion in a 30-minute session about Cyber Law and what CISO and CEOs need to know.

Following this, Nicola Whiting, Chief Strategy Officer and Co-Owner of Titania will deliver a presentation on why Embracing Diversity including Neuro Diversity is normal. She will explain how thinking differently will provide a better foundation to ensure cyber capabilities are designed and deployed by a better reflection of what should be considered as normality in society. The session will expand visitor’s thinking and help them to understand how proper diversity is normal and can enhance security businesses.
 
Closing the series, Professor Lisa Short, Top 50 Global Thought Leaders & Influencers on Blockchain, will come together with Philip Ingram MBE to discuss Blockchain and NFTs for Security Professionals - What are they? How can they help and what do security professionals need to know? The session will give insight into how Blockchain, non-fungible tokens (NFTs) are emerging capabilities with real implications for security, and exactly what security professionals need to know.

Rachael Shattock, event director of the International Cyber Expo, said: “We’re incredibly excited to host the first Cyber Webinar series, giving just a taster of what is to come at the physical International Cyber Expo in September. Cyber security is a fast-paced and constantly evolving sector and the webinar series gives an invaluable opportunity to tap into some of the greatest minds in the industry to gather insight into the current challenges and solutions. We strongly recommend that all cyber security professionals looking to stay abreast of the industry attend the sessions and join us for a face-to-face discussion this September.”
