Description

Do you know the percentage of UK businesses who reported a cyber-attack in the last 12 months?

Do you also know the biggest cyber threats to UK Creative and Fintech companies right now?

The digital age offers businesses plentiful opportunities to expand to wider global markets,
but this can also carry some substantial risks. Some of these risks can be attributed to
technology such as video-conference services, social media, security cameras, smartphones,
and international fund transfers, banking and payment systems.

In this session, DBT’s Cyber Hub will be answering the above questions and taking you through:

• Why cyber security matters
• The current cyber threat landscape affecting the Creative and Fintech industries
• How the government can help you mitigate cyber risks affecting your industry; and
• Other cyber security related information and guidance.
