Cyber Security Month 2022
Throughout the month of October, a number of our Centres of Excellence will be hosting a variety of webinars, artciles and in-person events addressing distinct cyber security aspects.
1st October marks the start of Cyber Security Awareness Month, dedicated to raising awareness - internally and externally - of this highly important topic. In today's world, it is hard to imagine life without our devices, immediate access to your information, imagery retrievable at a moment's notice, and effective management of confidential data for our professional and personal electronic lives. As we evolve towards an agile workplace and workforce, the cyber threats will only increase.
