The workshops and speakers

Workshop 1: Your Culture - Getting your staff and business resilience right led by Paul Maskall of Jungo

Paul Maskall is the Director of Jungo, a wellbeing, security and safeguarding company. After six years in the Norfolk and Suffolk Police, namely in roles in Intelligence, Counter Terrorism and Cyber Security, Paul left to further develop his passion around Cyber Security, Privacy and Safeguarding for both his work and his research.

Aside from his launching Jungo, Paul is also a Captain in the British Army Royal Signals as a specialist consultant in cyber security. Providing both consultancy and training ranging from Cyber Security, Counter Fraud, Online Safeguarding and Data Protection, Paul's mission is to improve people's relationship with technology in the first instance to aid in the understanding and motivations whether at home or in work.

Workshop 2: Criminal Technology led by David Higgins of 4ITSEC

David has had a fascinating career including working as a “UNIX contractor” for a UK Government department – travelling the world as a “highly cleared techie” for twelve years. He has also worked for several different UK security groups and departments – even meeting James Bond (although, not the one with the Aston Martin).

The common thread throughout those twelve years was “secrecy” and “security” and this became part of his working ethics. 4ITSec Ltd was formed in 2012 to ensure that the knowledge of “secure working” was passed onto local businesses.

He offers discrete and direct cyber security advice to businesses; scanning IT systems for issues and vulnerabilities (always an eye-opener), scanning for regulatory compliance, organising PEN testing, helping with Cyber Essentials and to be compliant with Data Protection Laws (GDPR software).

He’s a qualified CISSP, an Ethical Hackers and Cyber Essential accredited

Workshop 3: I know 1 in 5 of your passwords led by Mark Williams-Cook of Candour

Mark is a director at Candour, a full service agency that helps companies build brands, websites, software and digital marketing campaigns. With 15 years' industry experience, Mark has primarily worked within the SEO space, helping household names such as Expedia, Hitachi and FatFace realise their online ambitions.

As a 'keen enthusiast' in both infosec and privacy, Mark has also helped many SMEs and business owners take their first steps online, with everything from planning how to adapt their business to digital, to how they can tackle some of the security threats we all face in 2018.

Workshop 4: Top tips for building a cyber resilience plan led by Nicky Lawlor of Cyberfen

Nicky Lawlor is a co-founder of cyberfen, an innovative cyber resilience company. Cyberfen’s game-based approach enables business leaders to understand cyber risk and its impacts on the running of their organisation. Through a hands-on cyber vulnerability simulation, the executives play through cyber breach scenarios and take decisions from a business perspective. In this simulated business environment, they quickly see the outcomes of those decisions from a bottom-line and reputational aspect. The result is an enhanced executive board capability to align cyber protection investment with business priorities.

Nicky has 10 years’ experience in developing and facilitating interactive business simulations within global organisations. Previously she held HR and Talent Management roles with a global remit at facilities management organisation Compass Group plc.

Since joining the “cyber world” she has become an advocate of trying to widen the talent pool in the sector to attract people from a wide range of backgrounds into what is an exciting and growing industry with diverse career opportunities.

She is currently Cyber Ambassador for IoD Norfolk.
