Cyber security is in the spotlight in Session 2 of the APPMA's free Digital Lunchtime Series, taking place this week Thursday, 23 September, at 12.30pm -1.30pm AEST.
Every week there’s a new cyber security story that hits the media. And these are just the ones we hear about. It’s a growing risk for the packaging and processing industry, particularly with the evolution of connected factories and Industry 4.0. It's a bit of a Catch 22 – embrace digital transformation and be more susceptible to cyber-attack or don't and get left behind.
Deloitte’s partner for Cyber Risk Advisory, David Owen will share what needs to be done to increase vigilance and resilience in any organisation in the face of this growing threat in this Thursday’s Digital Lunchtime Series.
Smart factories are the next step for many and that will see dependency on technology rise quite significantly. He sees resilience as an end-to-end concept and organisations need to invest in understanding their system’s ability to withstand and respond to an attack.

Panel – a Tale of two viruses
The panel discussion on cyber security will feature industry leaders sharing their experience with cyber security. Information Security director from Australian food and beverage giant Lion, Jamie Rossato, will join Mark Dingley, CEO of Matthews Australasia, who offers a SME perspective on cybersecurity (or the tale of two viruses as he now refers to 2020), along with Rosanne Jessop, managing director of Pilz Industrial Automation, whose German headquarters where hit by a ransomware attack in 2019.
