0900-1030  Session 4: #LONDONCYBER INTERACTIVE: PROTECTING NATIONAL INFRASTRUCTURE AGAINST CYBER THREATS

But what is their contribution to national cyber defence and security? How does the interaction between the public and private sectors affect the capacity to respond to cyber-related threats? How can this be developed and implemented effectively on the national and international stage?
