Cybersecurity: what does "ready" look like?

12 February 12:00 - 12:30 GMT

Join the event

What will the event cover?

"The only thing worse than a cyber attack is not being prepared for one."

High-profile attacks such as those on Jaguar Land Rover and M&S have pushed cybersecurity to the top of board agendas - but are boards actually ready to respond? Recent research from the Board Value Index found almost half (42%) of company directors lack full confidence in their board’s ability to respond to a major cybersecurity incident. 

As cyber threats escalate in 2026, boards need more than awareness. They need practical frameworks, clear roles, and response plans that actually work under pressure.

Join Board Intelligence, S-RM, and Hiscox for a webinar exploring:

  • The board's role in cyber preparedness (and common blind spots).
  • Critical elements every cyber response plan must include.
  • How to shift from reactive crisis management to proactive risk oversight.
