BSides Leeds
At BSides Leeds 2025, I’ll be presenting The Sound of Secrets - exploring and experimenting with the sonification of data and whether the difference between plain text and encrypted information can be heard. It's a journey into sound, security, and the strange overlaps between human perception and information theory.
Young People's Skills Building Event
I’ll be running the Ransomware Game as a workshop at the Young People’s Skills Building Event this year. It’s a game I developed to help teach about the consequences of ransomware, understand risk, and most importantly understand prioritisation in business continuity and resilience.
SJUK Leaders in Security Conference
I’ll be speaking at the SJUK Leaders in Security Conference on 25th June, delivering a presentation on people-focused training in protective security. I’ll also be joining a panel discussion exploring how we can develop truly converged approaches to training across the security industry.
SteelCon
At SteelCon 2025, I'll be leading a workshop titled "Do You Wanna Build a Think Tank?" This session is designed to guide participants through the process of creating collaborative groups that foster innovation and strategic thinking within the security community. We'll explore methods to establish effective think tanks, encouraging diverse perspectives and proactive problem-solving approaches.
Infosek 2025
I’ll be speaking at INFOSEK 2025 in Nova Gorica, Slovenia, presenting Cutting the Line . It’ll be taking a look at a new implementation of an age-old approach to network security. The talk examines physical disconnection as a cyber security strategy — from air gaps to modern zero-trust implementations — and how rethinking physical constraints can reshape the way we design secure network architectures.
Richmond Cyber Security Forum
At this closed-door forum bringing together senior cybersecurity and IT leaders, I’ll be facilitating roundtable sessions exploring the practical realities of AI governance. Our discussion will cut through the noise surrounding artificial intelligence, addressing both the tangible risks and the often-overlooked opportunities it presents. Together, we’ll challenge sensational narratives and explore how strategic governance can unlock real value while maintaining control.
