The workshop
Cyber crime is increasing and can affect any business of any size or industry, causing devastating consequences. Similarly, the fast approaching GDPR will also affect every UK business who process customer data – they will need to be fully compliant with the new regulations by May 25th, or risk potential heavy fines. We’re taking away the fear, uncertainty and doubt, and we’re giving you the facts.
The event will be of interest to directors, senior management, marketing and HR professionals.
