Willis & NEDA Cyber Webinar 2026 - Are you resilient and can you prove it?
Are you resilient and can you prove it?
The UK Cyber Resilience Pledge, Cyber Governance and Board Accountability
A 45-minute webinar for UK directors and non-executive directors focused on the increasing expectations being placed on boards in relation to cyber resilience.
Why this topic?
One year on from the most high-profile cyber incidents impacting UK organisations, the UK government's Cyber Resilience Pledge and Cyber Governance Code signals a clear direction of travel: Cyber is a board-level responsibility rather than solely an IT issue. Organisations signing the pledge commit to making cyber a board responsibility, improving visibility of cyber threats and strengthening supply chain assurance.
The broader message is that boards are increasingly expected to demonstrate ownership of cyber resilience, not simply cyber security. Following a significant cyber event, scrutiny is likely to focus on what the board understood, challenged, funded, tested and documented before the incident occurred.
