The Security Institute previews agenda for 2024 Annual Conference

Delegates will learn how security roles have transformed in recent years, moving beyond a focus on traditional physical security measures to embrace holistic approaches to organisational well-being. This theme includes ensuring supply chain continuity, managing both accidental and deliberate insider threats and enhancing overall organisational resilience.

There will be key detail focused on the ways in which the role of security leaders has evolved, with job titles shifting from heads of security to directors of risk and resilience, in turn reflecting the broader scope of responsibilities in today’s dynamic security landscape.

Further, attendees can become informed on the changing face of the security professional. The modern security profession is now more diverse and inclusive than ever before. As such, The Security Institute and other key organisations such as the National Protective Security Authority and the Security Industry Authority are evolving to reflect such developments.

Guest speakers

On the day, guest speakers will include Heather Baily (chair of the Security Industry Authority), Stuart Wortley (a partner at law firm Eversheds Sutherland), Paul Maskall (strategic fraud prevention lead for UK Finance and the City of London Police) and also representatives from the National Protective Security Authority.

Special Guest of Honour will be Her Royal Highness The Princess Royal, Royal Patron of The Security Institute.

This year’s Annual Conference also plays host to The Security Institute’s annual awards ceremony.

In terms of timings for the day, registration opens at 8.30 am. Conference runs from 9.00 am-5.00 pm followed by networking drinks between 5.00 pm and 7.00 pm.
