The Norfolk Cyber Conference 2024
Following a sell-out event in 2023, The Norfolk Cyber Conference is back on 28 November!🙌
This year our line-up of speakers includes some new and familiar faces, as well as our outstanding keynote, Paul Maskall, who will leave you inspired.
This conference is designed specifically for businesses like yours. No jargon, just practical insights to help you navigate the ever-changing world of cyber security.
But that’s not all. We’ll also have a small exhibition and of course, what’s a conference without networking? You’ll be surrounded by like-minded businesses all working towards better security within business.
The conference is free to attend. But if you’d like to give a small donation to our charity of the year, Break, you can do so here.
We encourage you to bring as many colleagues, friends, and contacts as you can to learn how to protect themselves, and their businesses.

Speakers
Keynote Speaker: Paul Maskall
A specialist in fraud, cybercrime, vulnerability, and online manipulation, Paul Maskall emphasises the fact that the risk has much more to do with our own emotional subjectivity, and well-being. Venturing into the world of cognitive heuristics, habits, the technological environment, social media, and emotional projection, Paul explores the blurry line where we and our technology meet. Placing emphasis on how our own psychology and behaviour are impacted and altered when interacting online.
Paul’s keynote talk will focus on how our wellbeing can impact how we interact with cyber scams, and what you can do in your workplace to combat this.

I came to the event with expectations of the detail being over my head. The whole event had a friendly feel with light humour, the speakers were exceptionally engaging & spoke with real life experience and made such thought-provoking content that made me leave the event wanting to share what I had learned.
