KnowBe4, the world renowned cybersecurity platform is hosting its annual CyberSecure Leeds event on Wednesday 24th September as part of the Leeds Digital Festival. This exciting event will focus on the rise of AI-driven cyber threats and how organisations can stay protected by focusing on what matters most, its employees. So “when AI strikes, humans defend”.
The use of artificial intelligence in cybersecurity attacks is ever growing in scale and sophistication. This has caused for there to be a serious need for a person driven approach in keeping organisations safe from attacks. Therefore, CyberSecure Leeds 2025 will unite leading experts, showcase live demonstrations and provide practical guidance on how organisations can use data-driven insights to strengthen security culture, reduce human risk and empower employees as a vital first line of defence.
As Javvad Malik, lead CISO Advisor at KnowBe4, put it: “AI continues to dramatically and rapidly transform the cyber threat landscape, making phishing, deepfakes and other social engineering attacks more convincing than ever before.”
“Technology alone cannot keep pace with these threats. Building resilience means supporting employees to recognise and respond more effectively to advanced threats,” he continued.
The CyberSecure Leeds event will include:
- From Office to Anywhere: How to Build a Secure Culture, No Matter the Environment” chaired by Javvad Malik, Lead CISO Advisor at KnowBe4
- “Top 5 Threats Your Business Needs to be Aware of Right Now, and Defence Strategies” featuring Ant Davis (host of The Awareness Angle podcast), Jack Chapman (SVP of Threat Intelligence, KnowBe4) and James Dyer (Threat Intelligence Lead, KnowBe4)
- Data on which industries are most vulnerable to AI-driven threats, with practical steps for building resilience at scale
- How security awareness training (SAT) combined with human risk management (HRM) analytics can cut risk and reduce an organisation’s Phish-Prone Percentage (PPP) by 86% in 12 months
So if there’s any date to put in your corporate calendar, it will be the 24th of September 2025. That way you won’t miss out the opportunity to ensure you, your employees and business stay cybersafe.
