Cyber Security Academy
Cyber security: high on your agenda? Ultimate responsibility for cyber security lies with the board. However, it is a highly technical and fast moving global threat, and anyone who isn’t in the IT team can easily feel they lack full understanding of the issues.
Our Cyber Security Academy for business leaders offers a library of videos, articles, podcasts and other content to help non-technical leaders understand the essentials of cyber security and communicate more confidently about this threat.
Created by our global cyber security team, our insight will be invaluable in reducing the uncertainty around the issue, helping you to protect your company.
