Sebastian Madden, Capacity Building and MEA lead at CREST will discuss how in today's increasingly interconnected digital world, governments are collaborating through initiatives to develop cyber security skills and service providers to Combat Cyber Crime and protect Critical National Infrastructure.
In terms of national cyber security, a country is only as strong as its weakest link and in the age of interconnected global markets and an increasingly sophisticated threat landscape, the weakest link can come from anywhere in the world. It is important that when looking at initiatives to grow cyber skills, governments, academia and industry also consider how they can support those nations with less advanced cyber skills capability.
