About the Event

Cyber Incident Communications Toolkit - Preparing for, and responding, to a cyber attack

Universities have increasingly become targets of ransomware and other cyber-attacks. Such attacks can result in major disruption of operations, with significant financial and reputational impact.

The Cyber Incident Communications Toolkit, developed by the UCISA Security Group, provides information and resources for planning the communication response of a major cyber incident. The toolkit focuses on the importance of collaboration both internally and with partners to ensure provision of an effective and coordinated communications response with students, staff, funders, and other stakeholders.

This event will introduce the toolkit and supplemental resources, and include contributions from UCISA, Jisc and the NCSC.
