This workshop is about awareness and arming you with actionable strategies to protect your business.
In today’s fast-paced, digital world, staying one step ahead of online threats has never been more important. This workshop is tailored for SMEs in Greater Manchester, offering practical tools and insights to help you protect your business from scams, social engineering, and emerging dangers like those on the dark web.
Delivered by a Daintta expert in digital risk management, you’ll be given a deeper understanding of the human factors in security – an area where most organisations stumble. And you’ll get a powerful head start in tackling one of the most overlooked aspects of safeguarding your business, helping you outsmart the threats and skip costly mistakes.
What you'll learn
Arming you with actionable strategies to protect your business, the session will focus on three critical areas:
-
The role of your people in online safety: Understand why your team can be your best line of defence, exploring real-world case studies of human-related breaches in small and medium businesses, their consequences and the lessons learned. Pick up practical tips on spotting deepfakes and phishing attempts, and see a live demo of how online criminals gather information to create a spear-phishing attack.
-
Building strong defences within your team: Learn how to create a safety-first culture in your business using behavioural science principles. Explore what secure behaviours look like and how to make them stick. Gain insights into the dark web, where threats often originate, and participate in hands-on activities to design practical approaches for your workplace.
-
Measuring success and staying ahead: Understand how to track and measure your team’s readiness to handle online threats. Discover tools and technologies to gather data, and explore methods for using storytelling with metrics to secure buy-in from the right people in your business.
