Online Webinar

At REGENT BUSINESS SCHOOL, we are committed to enhancing your learning journey and providing you with valuable educational experiences. To this end, we continuously seek to improve our offerings and introduce new ideas and topics for discussion.

Cybersecurity is one such topic that is becoming increasingly important in today’s digital world. With the rise of technology, cyber attackers are using more sophisticated and diverse tactics, such as social engineering, malware, and ransomware. A single security breach can have severe and widespread consequences, making cybersecurity a critical concern for individuals and organisations alike.

To provide you with a fresh perspective on this topic, we have secured a Cyber Security expert, Billy Petzer, Research Group Leader of Cyber Security Systems at CSIR, to lead a masterclass on May 17 2023 at 11 am. Mr. Petzer will provide valuable insights into the latest methods and tactics used by cyber attackers, and discuss ways to protect yourself and your organisation from cyber threats. This masterclass will provide you with a unique opportunity to interact with an expert in the field and ask questions about the topic. It is an excellent chance to broaden your knowledge and develop critical thinking skills. We encourage you to embrace this opportunity and participate in the live discussion.
