JESSICA’S TALKS

The human side of cyber security so often gets overlooked, yet it is crucial to understand it if an organisation is to make itself properly secure. Dr. Jessica Barker brilliantly brings this aspect of security to life. Known for her graceful and clear communication of technical subjects, she can engage audiences of all levels.

Her regular appearances on national and international TV and Radio have cemented her place as the media’s go-to expert on the subject. She frequently appears on the BBC, Sky News, Channel 4 News, Channel 5 News, Radio 4’s Today program, Radio 2’s Jeremy Vine show and more.

She has been published in the Sunday Times and the Guardian, and frequently in industry press. She is regularly commissioned to write cyber security blog posts.

Jessica and her business partner, FC, can also do brilliant joint talks:

They discuss and demonstrate the who, how and why of hacking. Live demonstrations of hacks are interjected with discussions about how these hacks work, the human factors behind each attack and what we can do to mitigate against them.

The talk demystifies cyber insecurity and tackles both the human and technical elements at play.

Attendees leave with a greater awareness of how quick, simple and effective attacks can be, and what they can do, from a technical and human perspective, to better defend their organisation.
