Network security is absolutely critical, but before you hook up the alarm you also need
to better understand what you are trying to protect and proportionally weight your
efforts towards those assets which are business-critical and that give the company its
competitive edge.
Getting this right is even more important in the
current COVID environment, which has forced companies to adopt technology and enable new
ways of working at speed without necessarily having all the right checks and balances in
place. On the back of this, we have seen an increase in cyber-attacks, scams and
phishing, which is putting pressure on the already stretched resources of many
organisations.
So how can good cyber practices help combat and
protect not only the individual but companies and more importantly the country. How can
we use this global pandemic to get ahead of the curve and increase our
protection?
Hear from Sir John Key on his role on Cyber and his views on how New Zealand compares to the world.
Learn from our experts who will share insights, case studies and practical advice on why good cyber practice means not only securing the perimeter but also understanding what you’re protecting, from who and how best to mitigate these risks.
Join us on this webinar to hear from industry experts and government.

A highly experienced organisational leader and diplomat who is highly regarded for his organisational change management work, Ian has led organisations as diverse as the GCSB, the UK Patent Office, the Queensland Department of Employment, Economic Development and Innovation (like MBIE), the UN Customs Service in Kosovo, and chaired a G8 committee on innovation and intellectual property.
With a passion for the future of technology, cybersecurity, innovation, and
the people who will be responsible for forging the way, David leads the
conversation focussing on risk to business and bridging the skills gap in IT
and cybersecurity. In his current role David is responsible for
Datacom's cybersecurity services across Australia and New Zealand.
David has chaired the NZ Ministerial Cyber Capability Taskforce; he sat on
the CERT NZ advisory board; and he has been instrumental in helping
establish the cybersecurity diploma (the first of its kind in New Zealand)
alongside Unitec. First and foremost, his focus is on New Zealand businesses
and ensuring their cybersecurity and risk posture is growing with the rapid
changes and threats we constantly see in this landscape.
Laura has over ten years’ experience in financial services on both sides of
the Tasman, including roles in commercial broking, underwriting and more
recently as Business Development Manager in the R&D sector. Laura brings
her insights and passion for building strong partnerships to Delta Insurance
as Head of Personal Cyber for New Zealand.
Emerging Cyber threats: why this is not just a business risk
The COVID-19 pandemic has proved that no one is immune to cyber-crime, with
both businesses and individuals being targeted by the phishing and other
scams which soared during the crisis, as more people worked and studied from
home.
While many New Zealand businesses are aware of the commercial cyber risk
landscape and are putting into place risk management practices and insurance
protections to limit their organisation’s exposure, the risks are just as
real for individuals and families. Cyber criminals are targeting personal
devices and home networks, which don’t have the same level of corporate
protections in place, for credential harvesting and possible identity theft,
or ransoming your data.
We will discuss the NZ landscape and impacts of cyber crime, the DynaRisk
tool which allows you to monitor your personal information for dark web
breaches, and how Delta insurance’s latest product offering can help protect
families, not just businesses, against the growing cyber risks we all face.
