Knowing the risks: A CEO’s guide to managed cyber security
Tuesday 18th March
60 minutes
Webinar
Online
Cyber security is firmly a CEO and board priority. The potential reputational and financial damage combined with the increasing likelihood of a cyber attack means that CEOs need to carefully consider how they effectively manage cyber security. Tougher regulations, increased client and supplier scrutiny and the adoption of new innovations, such as AI, means that CEOs are having to balance innovative growth with risk management – while being cost-effective.
For these reasons, organisations are adopting managed detection and response (MDR) – or managed extended detection and response (MXDR) – giving a predictable and cost-effective security management solution that reduces cyber risk.
In this webinar, we explain the growing need for managed security services, reduce confusion over the different acronyms and models, and outline the benefits and value to be gained.
Agenda
- The top cyber risks companies face today
- The potential cost and impact of an attack
- MDR, MXDR, SOCaaS explained
- Key considerations when choosing a partner
- Cost vs value – finding the right service for you
- Q&A
