Hands up all those who tried to make a balaclava from a plastic bag as a child. Now hands up those who'd let their children do the same. Attitudes to safety change and evolve and it's high time that our reckless online behaviour gets a bit more savvy. Whether it's security at a national, organisational or individual level, we need to change our habits or we leave ourselves sitting ducks to criminals and opportunists.
Join us as three leading experts discuss the threats to us as individuals, organisations and society and give us sound advice for protecting ourselves and our accounts online.
Featuring:
Clare Lain, UK representative to the NATO's cyber defence arm in Tallinn
