Cyber Resilience: Prepare to be Aware

Is any business safe from a cyber attack? Not likely. And as these attacks become increasingly sophisticated, it’s almost a guarantee that more organisations will suffer as a result.

That’s why governance and digital resilience are essential for every organisation.

Join us for this webinar where we’ll discuss the steps you can take to improve your oversight of data governance. Learn how to avoid the physical, behavioural, and technical pitfalls in this ever-changing landscape.

The key takeaways from this webinar will be:

– Cyber resilience is an enterprise risk and everyone’s responsibility.
– Be aware and be prepared. Know when and where to look.
– Mind the data: Your responsibility extends throughout the supply chain.
