The Bottom-Line – New Year, New Focus
Action 1/8: Mitigating Risk, Eliminating Unnecessary Costs
|
We are excited to invite you to a business resilience and cyber security event hosted by the Chesterfield Skills Brokerage, designed to demystify cyber threats and equip you with the knowledge to safeguard your organisation.
Whether you are a business owner, IT professional or simply interested in cyber security, this event is a must-attend. Witness a real-time hacking demonstration that will reveal the techniques used by cybercriminals and engage in a discussion with experts from 3B Data Security and Althaus, who will provide practical advice on protecting yourself and your organisation. There’s also an opportunity to access at least £1,000 worth of support for every business to assess any vulnerability for potential system hacks. Insurance broker Howden reported in 2024 that Cyberattacks have cost British businesses around 44 billion pounds ($55.08 billion) in lost revenue in the past five years, with 52% of private sector companies reporting at least one attack in that time.
A networking event will follow so there’s an opportunity to connect and discuss the topics covered. This will be over a complimentary “Big Brunch” to help fuel our New Year, New Focus!
