Sign up for the Cyber and Assurance Conference 2024

The Information Security team is hosting a half-day event on the afternoon of 3 July at the Saïd Business School aimed at the collegiate University’s IT and cyber security community. In times of high-profile cyber attacks and other types of threat, this is an opportunity for the wider community to come together and focus on ways to reduce risks to personal information, research data and operational systems

 

This event will be in-person only and runs from 1pm to 5.30pm followed by networking. The eight talks include JISC’s cyber security Chief Technology Officer, AN Security, Nottingham Trent University on AI and student experience, and InfoSec’s Assurance colleagues will be giving a broader overview on business continuity and data protection in cyber incidents and data breaches.

 

Please note that capacity is limited, so book now to avoid disappointment.
