NZBEF is proud to pull together one of the strongest teams of cybersecurity experts ever to be assembled in this country. They will provide new perspectives and debate what we need to achieve our NZ - security of data - ambitions.
They will also consider the question - Do we need to redefine what business excellence is?
Credit for doing this must go to NZBEF Director Carew Hatherley who is also the CEO of IQM, a leading auditor of data security and privacy standards - such as ISO 27001.
Carew is also the Technical Lead for ISO 2700 in the region. (And what he won’t tell you is that he was previously a Colonel of the British Army with expertise in cyber warfare.)
Meet our Conference Cyber Team:
