Bringing Cybersecurity Knowledge to the Public
BSI Group, also known as the British Standards Institution is the national standards body of the United Kingdom. Founded in 1901, the group produces technical standards on a wide range of products and services and also supplies certification and standards-related services to businesses. BSI Cybersecurity and Information Resilience provide a range of solutions to help organisations address their information challenges covering cybersecurity, information management and privacy, security awareness, compliance and testing.
We generated positive coverage and brand sentiment in trade and business media around topics including company news (e.g., US acquisition), research findings (e.g. data privacy, phishing, eDiscovery and forensics), management appointments, strategic partnerships, industry award wins, event management and key calendar dates (e.g. National Cybersecurity Awareness Month). We also delivered B2C coverage for insights and advice around online security topics including password protection, data privacy and security fraud.
For the inaugural BSI International Cyber Resilience Exchange in 2019, we worked with the BSI team to deliver a world-class B2B event in Dublin’s Convention Centre, bringing together leading international experts and innovators from the cybersecurity industry under the theme of ‘Risk to Resilience’ and showcasing BSI’s information resilience knowledge and expertise.
