Starting with lunch at 12:00, the Information Security Awareness Week keynotes bring experts from outside the University in to speak about their experiences within the industry, current issues and threats being faced and how we can all be doing something to protect ourselves.
This year's event is moving from the Informatics Forum into the recently renovated St. Cecilia's Hall, promising an amazing atmosphere. Those arriving early will have the chance to go through the public gallery and examine their collection of historical instruments.
This year's speakers come from backgrounds in Penetration Testing, Information Security Awareness and Business Resilience.
