Description
As cyber threats grow, so do international efforts to counter them, both unilaterally and in partnership. This sessions reviews efforts across the spectrum to give our adversaries a bad day … or year.
From technical takedowns to international diplomacy, we’ll reveal how the UK and key partners are working together to counter threats; what works what doesn’t and how we can stay ahead of the bad actors.
