EVENT

Essential Cyber Security for Non-Executive Directors

26 November 2020

The Board, not IT, is responsible for cyber and information security. The GFSC requires boards to demonstrate taking cyber security seriously. The FRC, when issuing the UK Corporate Governance Code, highlighted that cyber is amongst the principal risks for many companies. If a company suffers a breach, the NED will be expected to show evidence of having governed cyber security as an enterprise-wide risk. It will not be appropriate to say the topic was handed to IT, with weak evidence of board oversight.

The NED is also a target for cyber criminals to access the organisation’s sensitive information. The risks are higher when the NED uses their own email and technology. This interactive workshop will help demystify cyber security, and discuss protective controls across people, operations and technology in line with globally recognised frameworks. It will help NEDs to better manage their business and personal cyber security, and to ask the challenging questions required by regulators and investors.
