Suzanne Williams says: “I’ll outline the types of organised and not-so-organised crime I’ve been involved with, sharing insights such as how to listen to others to improve negotiation skills. I’m really looking forward to the show; it’s the conversations and introductions which happen at in-person events that make all the difference. Having noticed an increase in cyber extortion in my world, it will be interesting to learn about the emerging threats and trends.”

Nicole Mills, Exhibition Director at Infosecurity Group, comments: “Two weeks before the event opens, and there’s a real buzz in the air about Infosecurity Europe 2022. We’re hearing from visitors, exhibitors and speakers alike how they can’t wait to get back together in person to share experiences, forge relationships and learn from each other. The theme we chose for this year’s show – Stronger Together – couldn’t be more apt, and we’re looking forward to seeing evidence of what increased industry collaboration makes possible in the coming years.”
