Could Your Business Be Next? Hackers, AI & Human Error – Are You Prepared?

Solihull Cyber Advice Network (SCAN) – Business Resilience 2026

Join Solihull business leaders for a FREE morning of live ethical hacking, expert advice, practical demonstrations and networking, followed by lunch.

Reserve your free place today – spaces are limited!

Cyber attacks don't always start with sophisticated technology. Sometimes all it takes is one convincing email, a careless click or an employee unknowingly sharing sensitive information with AI.

But what can you do to prevent an attack, protect your people and minimise the damage if something goes wrong?

What You'll Discover

Join experts from cyber security, ethical hacking, employment law and the police-led West Midlands Cyber Resilience Centre to explore the threats facing businesses today.

Watch a live ethical hacking demonstration – See how cybercriminals exploit weaknesses and learn how to protect your business

The human side of cyber security – Understand how employee mistakes, phishing and everyday working practices can put your organisation at risk

AI in the workplace – Discover the risks of employees using tools such as ChatGPT, particularly when handling confidential business or customer information

HR and legal responsibilities – Hear from an employment law expert about workplace policies, employee responsibilities and the legal implications when things go wrong

Cybercrime prevention and resilience – Get practical guidance from the West Midlands Cyber Resilience Centre on reducing your exposure to cybercrime

Protect your business, reputation and revenue – Learn practical steps to strengthen your defences and prepare for potential incidents

Make valuable local connections – Meet fellow business owners, directors and professional advisers over refreshments and lunch

Who Should Attend?

This free event is designed for local business owners, directors and senior managers of organisations employing five or more staff.

You don't need to be technical to benefit.

If your business relies on email, Microsoft 365, cloud systems or customer data – or your employees are already using AI – this event will help you understand the risks and what you can do about them.

Complimentary Refreshments, Lunch & Networking

Enjoy a complimentary breakfast roll, refreshments and hot lunch at Solihull College & University Centre.

There will be plenty of opportunities to meet other local business leaders, exchange ideas and make new connections.

We'll also be happy to help with introductions to potential clients, partners and suppliers.

Thursday 26 November 2026 | 8.30am–12.00pm, followed by lunch

Venue: Solihull College & University Centre, Solihull B91 1SB
