For our opening keynote, a senior level cyber-security professional from the NCSC will address the ways the industry regards cyber-attacks and created a culture of fear around online security. The NCSC is looking to add some clarity to the subject by cutting through the noise surrounding the issues that matter while fixing basic issues and stepping away from vendor fear, uncertainty and doubt. One particular topic that will be addressed is the TalkTalk hack. Although this was not as large scale as some other hacks, it was an unprecedented cyber-attack by a 17-year-old who exploited a SQL vulnerability, which has been around for over 20 years. The opening keynote at SC Congress London will get back to basics. Let's get the basics done right first, and together build a stronger UK.
