Breakfast briefing | 28 February | 8am - 10am GMT | London

As businesses focus a significant portion of their resilience planning around cyber-threats, organised crime gangs (OCGs) and hostile actors continue to look for new and inventive ways to exploit the vulnerabilities in the sometimes overlooked and often outdated physical security systems. Do you need to be investing more in physical security?

The second roundtable of our breakfast briefing series is held in collaboration with CPNI, the government authority for protective security advice to the UK national infrastructure. “Calling all senior executives – how secure and resilient is your business? Part II: Physical Security” will take place on Tuesday 28 February 2023, 8am – 10am, in central London.

Led by the Head of Physical Security at CPNI, the session will enable you to sharpen your understanding, commitment, and implementation of robust corporate resilience plans. The event will build on the first discussion on Security Governance and take a look at the range of malicious threats facing businesses today.

You will gain exclusive insights into the vulnerabilities that hostile actors are exploiting with malicious intent, and the forethought and proportionate countermeasures that can mitigate these. You will learn how to harness the latest palette of physical security and information management innovations responsibly, sustainably, and safely, whilst having the unique opportunity to share your corporate knowledge in a Chatham House environment. The briefing will be followed by a networking session between 10.00-11.00am.

This event is exclusively for Resilience First’s senior executive members. For more information or to register, please contact Shazre Quamber-Hill on contact@resiliencefirst.org.
