About this Event

Diogeledd Labs: Supporting The Securing of Digital Services.

Specialists in Information Security, our mission is simple: for your data, systems and infrastructure to be as secure as possible.

Powered by a passion for data privacy, we are not generalists. Our area of expertise is very niche, but vital to upholding the security and integrity of your company, its data and its assets.

Overview

This one day SecRec workshop, led by a specialist, is designed for any person working at a company which recruits employees and processes data.

SecRec - Recruiting & Vetting With Security in Mind

We want what we know to be accessible to everyone, so we break down information into digestible chunks, easy to absorb and where practical explained in layman terms, backed by case study and real world examples.

Understanding the attack methods threat actors use is vital to understanding how to strengthen defences.

Leaning on regulations and frameworks, we aim to equip you with an understanding of;

  • The layers to the cyber security ecosystem
  • Why SecRec is important
  • Recruiting with security in mind
  • Vetting practices and methods
  • Social Engineering
  • Threat actors, insider threats, their motives
  • Attack methods
  • Relevant frameworks and regulatory guidance
  • Defence tactics and basic strategies
  • Considerations for you to take back to your businesses/employer

The listed price includes attendance to our workshop starting at 09:30 and ending at 17:00.
