Event: Digital Security in the Supply Chain

posted in: News, Uncategorized | 0

North West Aerospace Alliance in collaboration with Sanitas Data Security and Preston’s College, is holding an event about digital security in the supply chain.
We live in a connected world. What connects us all is data, and that data has never been more valuable to own, vital to share or more vulnerable to attack.
Cyber criminals are shifting their focus from increasingly well protected corporates to more vulnerable SMEs in their supply chain.

Tickets for the Event are £10.00 (plus booking fee & VAT) and can be bought from the eventbrite page (https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/digital-security-in-the-supply-chain-tickets-12617243515)
