About this Event

Cyber Security Workshop Breakfast

Hosted by BT Local Business Birmingham to Hereford

Cyber security is no longer just a concern for large corporations. Small and medium-sized businesses are increasingly being targeted by cyber criminals — and the impact can be severe, from lost revenue to reputational damage, and in some cases, business failure.

Join BT Local Business Birmingham to Hereford for a Cyber Security Workshop Breakfast, combining expert insight with a relaxed morning of networking over coffee and a cooked breakfast.

This practical, jargon-free session is designed to help business leaders understand today’s cyber risks and take confident steps to protect their organisations.


What you’ll gain from attending

✔ A clear understanding of the latest cyber threats facing businesses like yours
✔ Practical, no-nonsense advice from experienced cyber security professionals
✔ Guidance on spotting warning signs early and responding effectively
✔ Time to ask questions about your own business concerns
✔ The chance to connect with other local business leaders over breakfast


Agenda | 8.00am – 10.00am

08.00 – 08.15 | Registration & welcome coffee
08.15 – 08.45 | Breakfast & networking
08.45 – 09.30 | Cyber Security Workshop with Julian Lane, BT Local Business
09.30 – 09.45 | Open Q&A

What the workshop will cover

• The most common types of cyber attacks and how to recognise them in practice
• The true cost of a cyber attack — beyond financial loss, including reputational impact
• How BT’s cyber security solutions can help protect your business and educate your teams
• An overview of Cyber Essentials accreditation — what it is, why it matters, and how to achieve it

You’ll leave with clear, practical takeaways you can implement straight away to strengthen your organisation’s cyber resilience.
