Addressing Cyber Security in a post COVID world

Today's security fundamentals are being massively disrupted. While new technologies are important to cyber security, technology alone is not enough to address what’s become a constantly changing environment. Delivering security with speed and scale requires a different approach – one that lets you succeed, move quickly and meet challenges head-on.

We’ve gathered expert speakers to share their experience and insights on cyber security from different perspectives to discuss important people, policy and processes considerations for any professional or legal services firm.

Speakers:

Ben will act as MC and will discuss Tickbox’s Security services and Audit approach.
