The Norfolk Cyber Conference 2026
Norfolk’s annual sell-out cyber security conference returns on 5 November!🔒
The Norfolk Cyber Conference is a half-day event that brings together local businesses that share one concern: how do I keep my business safe from cyber threats?
This year, we’re welcoming two internationally know industry experts: Danni Brooke and Ben Owen. Danni, a former undercover cop, and Ben, an ex-British intelligence officer, bring over 40 years of combined experience in security, intelligence, and investigations. Find out more about this duo in the speaker bios below.
Throughout the morning, you’ll hear from a range of diverse expert speakers, as well as having the opportunity to ask them your questions. There will also be a small exhibition for our event supporters, and time to discuss the topics of the day with your fellow attendees.
With the continuous rise and impact on the threat landscape, there’s no doubt that artificial intelligence (AI) will remain on the agenda for 2026. As well as other key updates, insights, tips, and more from our expert speakers.
Is this event for me?
We design this conference for Business Owners, HR teams, Operations Directors, Finance Directors, Managers, and anyone in your business who wants to be more secure in the workplace. No complex jargon, no sales pitches, just practical insights to help you navigate the ever-evolving world of cyber security in your business.
The conference is free to attend. We encourage you to bring as many colleagues, friends, and contacts along to learn how you can protect yourselves.
More details, including the agenda, speakers, exhibitors, and more will be announced soon.
