| Title | CISO: The Board Game! (Session 1) |
| Abstract | The life of the Chief Information Security Officer (CISO) can be hard and fraught with risk, walking a tightrope between protecting their organisation from a range of nefarious but often unseen attackers whilst helping the business go faster through a programme of digital transformation.

If you’ve ever wanted to experience the high stakes world of the CISO, come along to the Level 1 Foyer where you’ll get to team up with other defenders, make decisions on how best to secure your organisation and react to a whole range of incidents and breaches. Best of all this board game is built with LEGO, so have no concerns about a Jumanji-style cyber nightmare. Love the challenge of escape rooms? Can’t wait to don a costume for weekend murder mystery parties*? Come find us on Friday evening and live the life of the Chief Defender! *Costumes not required for cyber simulation |
