Open Forum: Maximising What You Have for Cyber Resilience - Ask the Experts

For this session, we want to hear from the audience.

This will be a collaborative discussion to hear what matters to you on the topic of cyber security in health and care, looking at systems and technology and the human side of cybersecurity.

Systems & Technology – Maximising What You Have to Secure the System

• Understand the impact of the Cyber Security Resilience Bill and NHS Cyber Security Charter, and how we can prepare for future threats through proactive mitigation strategies.
• Ensure cybersecurity is embedded into digital innovation from the outset—not bolted on—and strengthen incident response planning.
• Improve system-wide resilience through secure technology integration, vendor accountability, and supply chain auditing.

People & Wellbeing – Maximising Your Workforce to Build Resilience

• Build a cyber-aware culture by making security a shared responsibility across all teams, not just IT.
• Address cyber burnout and support staff wellbeing to improve retention and performance in high-pressure environments.
• Shift mindsets through cultural change and explore how perceptions of responsibility influence behaviour and resilience.
