Local Bury Accountants, Horsfield & Smith, are hosting a Seminar on Information Security Leadership and How Cyber Criminals Do It on Thursday, 14 May 2015 at The Red Hall Hotel, Bury, Lancashire.
With more and more businesses and organisations becoming the victim of information security theft, it is increasingly vital for every business and organisation in the UK to keep their confidential information safe. Confidential information relates to bank details, home addresses, email addresses, credit card details, passwords, bank details and statements, any other financial documents.
Come along to our Seminar where Peter Nicol, Director at Horsfield & Smith, will be explaining the importance of information security management and leadership and how to implement a strategy that is right for you.
See live demonstrations by Mark Pegram and Ric Derbyshire, from Sanitas Data Security, on how criminals access your network and steal your data, together with practical advice on how to stop them.
David Reynolds from IAAITC, will explain the human element of information security. Human error is the major cause of data breaches. Learn what is required to deliver effective staff training and awareness.
Jane Hawarden, Head of Marketing at Horsfield & Smith, commented: “many SMEs think because they are a small business, it won’t happen to them. The reality is all businesses and organisations, no matter what size, are at risk. It is vital that business owners take action now to ensure they have a good information security strategy in place to protect their business”.
