Strengthening cyber security in advanced manufacturing
Seriun teams up with North West Aerospace Alliance and Burnley College for exclusive manufacturing cyber security event
This exclusive half-day event is tailored to the manufacturing and engineering industries. It will address the critical cyber security challenges these sectors face, equipping attendees with actionable strategies and tools to safeguard their operations and data. The event will also advise how businesses can prepare to achieve the Cyber Essentials Plus accreditation, which is fast becoming a requirement across many sectors.
Why attend the event?
Cyber threats are becoming more common, and manufacturing businesses are often the target. This event is designed to give IT managers, business owners, and operations directors practical knowledge to improve their cyber security defences.
Attendees will gain valuable insights through presentations, interactive workshops, and networking sessions, all focused on real-world strategies to protect against new and emerging threats.
Achieving the prestigious Cyber Essentials certifications is becoming a must-have, in increasing numbers of businesses throughout the country. While many organisations now hold basic Cyber Essentials, the next step is attaining the more comprehensive Cyber Essentials Plus accreditation. This session will provide clear guidance on what businesses need to do to secure this highly regarded certification.
Earning Cyber Essentials Plus demonstrates a serious commitment to cyber security, instilling confidence in stakeholders and strengthening a company’s ability to win contracts, including public sector and governmental opportunities. Additionally, this certification ensures businesses meet the criteria for obtaining cyber insurance – providing further peace of mind.
