High profile hacks, human risks, with Jane Frankland
Update: 2025-10-10
Description
Cyber threats are no longer confined to IT teams, they’re everyone’s business. In this powerful conversation with cybersecurity leader, author and founder of the Insecurity Movement, Jane Frankland, we explore the human side of cyber risk and what leaders can do to protect their organisations, people, and reputations. From high-profile hacks at Marks & Spencer and Jaguar Land Rover to the rise of AI-driven attacks and insider threats, Jane reveals why resilience beats perfection and how to prepare for when, not if, a breach happens.
Highlights
- Behind the Bond: How Jane’s journey from art and design, and a touch of James Bond inspiration, led her to pioneer one of the first female-owned ethical hacking firms.
- High-Profile Lessons: What the recent Marks & Spencer and Jaguar Land Rover cyber-attacks reveal about vulnerabilities, response and responsibility.
- Homegrown Hackers: Why many new attackers are young, UK-based and driven by both money and kudos.
- Insurance Illusions: Why cyber insurance isn’t a safety net, and how organisations remain legally responsible for data protection.
- People Power: How to turn employees from weakest link to strongest shield through tailored, engaging, role-specific training.
- Planning for the Inevitable: Why every leader needs a tested cyber response plan, just like a fire drill.
- The AI Acceleration: How artificial intelligence is supercharging cybercrime, and what “human in the loop” really means.
- Take Action: Jane urges leaders to build cyber literacy, leverage free resources like the UK National Cyber Security Centre’s Board Toolkit, and take advantage of her free educational content on YouTube and LinkedIn.
