For anyone concerned about their company’s security, small or large, whatever-sector.
Covid-19 has created unprecedented opportunities for criminals. This online conference brought together leading law enforcers, subject experts and ex-criminals (including, a fraudster, a senior mafia figure and a hacker) to give businesses the insider knowledge they need to prevent and fight fraud. It is believed to be the first time a group like this has appeared in public to help protect the public and business.
This important event addressed a genuine need for businesses to understand why emerging criminal threats caused by the Coronavirus crisis mean they must re-think their physical and cyber security. The conference included a number of virtual ‘booths’ where hand picked vendors offered technical advice and solutions.
