How to prevent human activated risk in the housing association and local authority supply chain

Microsoft Teams (virtual) 16th February 2023, 14:00 - 16:00 GMT

As part of the exponential rise in account takeover attacks, cybercriminals continue to exploit the trusted relationships between housing associations, local authorities, and corporate suppliers. Phishing remains the go-to technique to steal employees’ credentials, and once one organisation within the ecosystem is breached, compromised accounts are used to quickly launch further attacks from these trusted domains. At the same time, organizations remain vulnerable to human error, with accidental data loss by email the top cause of security incidents reported to the ICO.

Register now to join this exclusive roundtable for peer-led discussion into the email security risks within the housing association and local authority supply chain. Chaired by cybersecurity experts from Softcat and Egress, this session will include conversations about the current threat landscape that housing associations and local authorities operate within, the inbound and outbound email threats they’re vulnerable to, and how security controls can be deployed to effectively manage this risk.
