Staying Safe From Phishing Scams with Lead Scotland

24th Feb | 11AM - 12PM | Online

Cyber crime is, unfortunately, on the rise. This session looks at some of the most common current scams, the most important things we can do to reduce the risk of falling victim to them. We will also look at some helpful tools to help keep us safe from phishing scams.

The Unreported Incident with Closed Door Security

24th Feb | 2 - 4PM | Online

Breaches happen not through sophisticated attacks, but through people staying quiet about things they should report. This is a practical session on building cultures where people actually report things, responding in ways that encourage future reporting, and maintaining accountability without punishment.

Cyber Crime Detective Game

25th Feb | 11AM - 4PM | Merchant City, Glasgow

Think you’ve got what it takes to catch a hacker? Join the investigation into who hacked Melissa McCarpy in this fast-paced, interactive challenge! Dig through clue-packed evidence, including documents, social posts, bank statements and more – and analyse CCTV footage to uncover how the hacker broke into her inbox.

Groups can also host an event for CyberScotland Week!

From organisations to community groups and individuals, by hosting an event, you’re helping to drive the conversation about cyber resilience. No event is too small – you could host a panel session, workshop, webinar, coffee morning or drop-in session, and play your part in helping everyone in Scotland stay safe online.
