About the event

UK government views the board's role in cyber resilience as absolutely fundamental, and Ministers have been asking boards urgently and directly to raise their game. "Take cyber security seriously, at the very top of your organisation", they warned. "If your board has not recently discussed cyber risk, do so at your next meeting and then regularly. This is not an issue to delegate to your IT team and forget about. This will only become increasingly important."


So we're delighted to welcome back John Maguire, Head of Cyber Resilience at the Department for Science, Innovation and Technology, to brief the CxB community. John will be updating us on the new programmes and legislation in development that boards need to know about, including the Cyber Governance Pledge, the Cyber Security and Resilience Bill, and more.

 

CxB webinars are designed for NEDs and executive board members, although may also be of interest to those who support boards.


Speakers: John Maguire, DSIT, with the CxB team
