We’re here to protect the organisation from both external and internal threats, and every day presents new challenges. This is an exciting place to be: hackers constantly attempt to find new ways to threaten our security, and we never rest in learning new ways to prevent them. And those threats don’t just come from viruses and fraudsters. Our work also touches on issues such as terrorism, world events, and the impact of economic turbulence. As the world around us changes, we have to be prepared and ready to respond.
