Annual Conference 2024 -  "The Changing Face of Security"

Explore the transformation of security roles in recent years as they move beyond traditional physical security measures and into the world of holistic approaches to organisational wellbeing.  This theme addresses the assurance of supply chain continuity, the management of both accidental and deliberate insider threats, and the enhancement of organisational resilience in recent times. Discover how the role of security leaders has evolved, with titles shifting from Heads of Security to Directors of Risk and Resilience, reflecting the expanding scope of responsibilities in today's ever-shifting security landscape.

Join us and we can guarantee a full day line up of industry experts from various backgrounds of security, who will be delivering topical conversation and debate.
