In this episode, we discuss how prepared organisations really are for cyber attacks, what to do if and when your business is affected, and how to manage the communications challenges.

Philippa Lamb is joined by Peter Davenport, Crisis Communications Specialist, Definition Group; Michael Hoare, Director, Kekst CNC;  Neil Hare-Brown, Founder, Storm Guidance; and Nadeem Raza, CEO, Microlise.
