    Cyber attacks across the supply chain: How London’s SMEs can prepare and respond

    Thursday 19 March, 10:30-12:00, Microsoft Teams

    Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) underpin London’s economy, yet many face increasing cyber risks without the resources or expertise to defend against them.
