Security Lancaster: Small Business Cyber Security Survey Film Now Live
Five films of the Small Business Cyber Security Survey launch event earlier this month are now online. The survey gathered information about the security concerns of small businesses. The exclusive event included a presentation from Eric Ollerenshaw OBE, MP for Lancaster and Fleetwood:
"I'd like to thank Daniel (Daniel Prince, Associate Director of Security Lancaster) in particular... for me, as a member of parliament, the fact that Lancaster has been established as a centre of excellence on this is just fantastic news for the whole district... and businesses round here."
The highlights film includes interviews with businesses and partnerships such as Gary Lovett, Regional Chairman for Cumbria, Federation of Small Businesses, the UK's largest campaigning pressure group promoting and protecting the interests of the self-employed and owners of small firms. He commented:
"There are far too many small businesses out there that really don't understand the full impact of IT and cyber attacks. That's why the Federation of Small Businesses, with the University, will come together to get this information out to lots more businesses."
