Technology, AI & Digital Transformation
Join The Outstanding Society and Howden Insurance for a powerful live theatre session exposing the reality of a cyberattack in the care sector.
 
See firsthand what really happens when a care service is breached, as a specialist cyber expert demonstrates a live hack and walks the audience through the unfolding impact.
This unique session will feature:
James Rycroft, Executive Director, Specialist Dementia Services, The Outstanding Society
Samantha Crawley, Director of Leadership & Wellbeing, The Outstanding Society
Jonathan Taylor, Divisional Director & Head of Corporate Risks, Health & Care, Howden
 
And a guest speaker — an industry specialist whose identity must remain confidential for security reasons! We promise, they will be worth the wait.
 
Don’t miss this eye-opening demonstration designed to help care providers understand the risks—and the actions needed—to protect their services.
