Broaden your cyber security knowhow at CyberThreat 2023. November’s two day conference sees experts from the cyber security community share their insight and knowledge. Sponsored Post Cyber security remains a top three priority for most, if not all, organisations. The risks associated with failure to implement adequate defences were once again highlighted by the ransomware incident which impacted several hospital computer systems across the US last month. Those tasked with thwarting these attacks have to keep their knowledge and skills up to date and relevant if they are to deliver the protection required. And it's always a good idea for those new to the cyber security profession to learn about the tips and tools of the trade as early as possible. That's the experience CyberThreat 2023 is designed to provide. It's an event with a strong technical emphasis that should offer real value to those working hard at the front line of cyber security in the UK and Europe. CyberThreat 2023 will be hosted by the UK's National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC) and SANS Institute on 20-21 November at The Novotel London West in Hammersmith, London. The conference will be moderated by James Lyne, CTIO at SANS Institute and Paul Chichester, Director of Operations at the NCSC. It will feature keynote presentations from subject matter experts in offensive, defensive and forensic cyber security disciplines and tactics, including the newly appointed CTO at the NCSC, Ollie Whitehouse. Speakers from cyber security firms such as CrowdStrike, Palo Alto Networks, Google Cloud Mandiant, Microsoft, Accenture, BAE Systems Digital Intelligence, Darktrace, EclecticIQ, VMRay and PwC will also share their knowledge, alongside SANS executives and certified instructors. There's a host of in-venue networking opportunities and technical challenges, such as hackable badges and the in-person CTF, that attendees can take part in too, but if you can't make it into London in person on the day, don't worry – the conference will also be taking place virtually so you can log in online.
