The perils of paying lip service to cyber risk

In this latest Today's Conveyancer podcast, host David Opie is joined by Emma Green, Managing Partner at Cyber Data Law Solicitors.
A regular commentator on national radio and television, Emma is an expert on cyber crime and alongside spending her time educating firms on the perils of cyber attack, has also spent time negotiating with criminal organisations on behalf of firms who have been attacked.
Emma lends her experience and insight to the Today's Conveyancer podcast where she discusses why the cyber risk message simply isn't getting through; We have seen a number of large legal organisations affected in just the last couple of months.
With experience dealing with insurance providers, Emma also discusses the merits of the various online security badges and marks avaiable (Cyber Essentials etc) and how they are viewed by insurers.
She also explains how a firm's greatest risk is its people and constant diligence is required to protect ourselves from the increasingly sophisticated efforts of cyber criminals. And alongside some top "prevention is better than cure" tips, Emma shares her thoughts on what firms need to do in the immediate aftermath of a cyber attack.
