Get ready to level up your cybersecurity game and protect your business like a pro with expert tips for South West SMBs!
About this Event

Every day, SMBs across the South West face cyber threats that could destroy years of hard work in minutes. From ransomware attacks that lock up your systems to data breaches that damage customer trust, the risks have never been higher.


But here's the problem: Most cybersecurity advice is either too technical, too expensive or designed for large enterprises.

That's why we're bringing together the region's leading cybersecurity experts for an evening specifically designed for SMB owners, managers, and decision-makers.


🎯THIS EVENT IS FOR YOU IF:

  • You run or manage an SMB (10-250 employees) in the South West
  • You're concerned about cyber threats but don't know where to start
  • You've heard about ransomware, phishing, and data breaches, but need practical guidance
  • You want to protect your business without breaking the bank
  • You're tired of technical jargon and want straight-talking advice

📚 WHAT YOU'LL LEARN:

  • Essential security foundations
  • Real-world protection strategies
  • Compliance made simple
  • Budget-friendly implementation

WHAT MAKES THIS EVENT DIFFERENT?

  • South West SMB focused advice, designed for businesses like yours
  • Actionable takeaways you can implement immediately
  • Local expertise with real case studies
  • Peer networking, connect with fellow business leaders facing similar challenges

PANELISTS

We're bringing together the region's most experienced cybersecurity professionals:

  • Eddie Lamb, Chief Information Security Officer at Hiscox: Eddie brings over 20 years’ experience spanning military intelligence, consultancy with Deloitte, KPMG and CGI, and leadership in global cyber strategy.
  • Matthew Murray, Security Expert at Giacom: With nine years of experience spanning technical support, penetration testing, and cybersecurity education, Matthew brings a strong understanding of both offensive and defensive security strategies.


More panel members will be confirmed shortly.
