Workshop: Cyber exercising for charities - how to do it well and relatively painlessly!

Applications for this workshop are now closed due to high demand. 

The aim of this workshop is to encourage those in the charity sector to see the benefits of exercising as part of developing their cyber resilience, giving attendees the confidence to advocate for running cyber exercises within their charity – whatever their own level of technical expertise. These aims will be achieved by signposting NCSC’s free resources and how they can be used, and by prompting attendees to identify next steps for exercising within their organisation.

This workshop will cover: 

• What cyber exercising is
• Why it’s important
• How not to do it badly
• Why it’s something that charities of all shapes and sizes can benefit from
• How NCSC can help with a range of free resources and guidance on how to use them – whatever your own level of technical expertise.

Please familiarise yourself with the NCSC’s Exercise in a Box tool, which will be referred to in the workshop.
