Summary

Please note that this webinar series will be held under the Chatham House Rule and will be closed to the media. 

Since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, a growing number of cyber criminals and other malicious online groups have been exploiting the COVID-19 outbreak for their own personal gain or strategic advantage. Only late April, some 450 active World Health Organisation’s email addresses and passwords were leaked along with thousands belonging to others working on the response to the coronavirus outbreak. The situation is no better in the business world, with a higher degree of cybercrime currently being experienced in the financial services and energy sectors, as well as other industries, both in the UK and abroad.

A joint advisory statement published in April by the UK’s National Cyber Security Centre and the US Department of Homeland Security, Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Agency, shows that cyber criminals and advanced persistent threat (APT) groups are targeting individuals and organisations with a range of ransomware and malware.

It is expected that the frequency and severity of COVID-19 related cyber-attacks will increase over the coming weeks and months. Against this background City & Financial Global is pleased to announce its virtual roundtable series: “Cyber Security and Resilience in the COVD-19 Era”, taking place live between 2-11 June, and available on-demand thereafter.

The webinar series builds on the success of our twelve previous cyber security sectoral summits, which have enjoyed the support of the National Cyber Security Centre, NCA, NHS Digital, FCA, HM Treasury, Bank of England, the Energy UK, UK Finance and other top industry bodies.

The programme has been designed to address the key issues that have been identified as being of most concern to your organisation during this period of increased cybercrime activity.

You will receive practical advice on how to prevent COVID-19 related and other malicious cyber activity and how to deal with the incidents if they have already happened.

As demand for this webinar series is likely to be high, early booking is recommended.
