Defending North East NHS infrastructure requires more than just standard perimeter security. It demands rapid detection, coordinated incident response, and regional collaboration. As local trusts modernise, healthcare SecOps teams face the unique challenge of protecting expanding environments against increasingly targeted threats.
Join Softcat and Rapid7 at the iconic St James' Park Stadium for an exclusive, practical afternoon. We will step away from generic industry slides to focus heavily on what matters most to healthcare: operational resilience, accelerated containment, and visibility into modern threat vectors.
