About the Event

Join PJ (Patrick) Hemmaway, CIO at the University of Manchester, and UCISA corporate member, Waterstons as they share how to maximise the value of your cyber investment and secure your University. We are investing more in cybersecurity than ever before, but does spending more always mean enhanced security?

The following areas will be explored:

  • What makes a trusted security partner?
    Understanding the qualities and commitments that define a trusted security partner is crucial for any University. Learn how to identify and collaborate with partners who not only safeguard your business but also help you navigate the complex world of cybersecurity with confidence.
  • Cost optimisation in cybersecurity
    Balancing budgets while ensuring robust security is a significant challenge. We’ll discuss strategies for optimising your cybersecurity spend, helping you get the most value out of your investments without compromising on protection.
  • The role of a virtual CISO and effective security architecture
    Discover how a Virtual Chief Information Security Officer (vCISO) can provide expert leadership and strategic guidance, helping you build and maintain a resilient security architecture.
