Cyber safe Scotland: Understand current resilience and risks for your organisation

This conference examines the nature of cyber security threats, how to respond and what actions need to be taken.

Scotland’s essential services are now a constant target for increasingly sophisticated cyber attackers. While the public sector is often the primary victim, the impact of these attacks cascades far beyond councils, health boards and emergency services. They can disrupt private sector supply chains, voluntary organisations and critical national infrastructure. The challenge for organisations in Scotland is to build a unified, cross-sector approach to defending the digital front line to minimise future major breaches.

Here are a few recent attacks:

· Glasgow City Council – causing disruption to online services

· Heathrow Airport – attack on Collins Aerospace causing check in delays and cancellations

· Kido International nursery chain – theft of data of thousands of nursery age children

· M&S – halting online trading and causing substantial financial loss

· West Lothian Council – education network causing disruption to operational systems for schools
