London, 6 July 2021: Just last week, hundreds of businesses across the US[1] were hit by a colossal ransomware cyber-attack that left companies across the world paralysed and even forced 500 Co-op supermarket stores in Sweden to close[2]. It is against this backdrop that the newly launched International Cyber Expo is hosting its first free-to-attend webinar series TOMORROW from 10am to 1pm.

Sponsored by Tripwire, the series will deliver expert opinion on specific topics highly relevant for those responsible for top tier cyber security including key understandings for CISOs and CEOs. Five separate sessions will be presented by leading cyber experts including:

• 10:00: Professor Ciaran Martin CB, Former CEO of National Cyber Security Centre and Professor at Oxford University in conversation with Philip Ingram MBE - Understanding the Cyber Landscape, threats, opportunities and making the best use of NCSC and other public resources.
