Information Security and Compliance

About the Event

Information Security and Compliance go hand in hand and need to be considered holistically. Organisations face an ever-increasing list of statutory, regulatory, contractual, and legal compliance obligations. Colleagues must communicate and enforce the policies that stem from these obligations, as well as managing areas such as the boundary between corporate and personal use.

When you think about compliance, does a specific standard spring to mind? Or perhaps a contract, or a law? How do you prioritise them? What about scope and exceptions? How can you make it all work together? In her talk, Bridget Kenyon will take you through the thorny problem of what compliance is and how to make it work for you, including standards and legal obligations such as ISO 27001, PCI DSS, GDPR and Cyber Essentials.

Julian Dobson, IT Business Relationship Manager at Goldsmiths, will also give an overview of the Goldsmiths Information Security Steering Group: why it was created, how it works, and what it has achieved.
