The SASIG (Security Awareness Special Interest Group) is a strong networking community for thousands of cybersecurity professionals, supporting the development of the industry through a series of physical events, webinars and masterclasses. The SASIG provides an environment where security professionals across all sectors can gather together privately to explore contentious and challenging cybersecurity issues in greater detail.
A safe space
The SASIG is committed to providing a space for cybersecurity professionals to gather safely and freely exchange views and concerns about the issues of affecting the industry.
With SASIG membership restricted to industry frontliners only, its events are a non-sales space, exclusively made up of security professionals with the exception of its vetted supporters who contribute to the community.
The SASIG enforces the Chatham House Rule at all of its physical events and members-only webinars.
The intention of the SASIG is to create a community, and therefore it fosters an environment of supportiveness, informality and inclusivity.
Advancing industry knowledge
The SASIG’s goal is to improve trust in the online environment and to harbour that trust it is committed to education and knowledge sharing throughout the community.
Its webinars and events feature high-calibre speakers
With a focus on professional development, The Security Institute members earn two CPD points for every hour learning at a SASIG webinar, and ISACAmembers earn CPE points for every webinar they attend.
Improving trust in the online environment
The Security Awareness Special Interest Group is really quite special and much-loved by thousands of cybersecurity professionals and others in the UK and beyond. It offers a subscription-free networking and thought-leadership forum for the industry. All of its activities are free to attend, covering the topics at the forefront of all members’ minds. It examines both the technical and the softer cybersecurity issues.
Membership now represents hundreds of organisations of all sizes from across the world and from all sectors, public and private, drawn from CISOs and other decisions makers and influencers who are responsible for security in their organisations.

Managing risk in cyberspace:
What risk quantification can teach us
Thursday 24 April 2025
9.30am – 5pm
City of London
In association with Lloyd’s
Join us in April to explore how to navigate and quantify the ever-present risks in today’s digital landscape. Cybersecurity is often viewed through the lenses of threats and vulnerabilities. But we must also balance these against probabilities to truly understand our position.
This event will delve into the complexities of cyber risk management, examine how discussions often focus too narrowly on technical jargon and leave decision-makers with a limited understanding of the true risks they face, and explore how we can better quantify risks to support informed business decisions.
We hope you and your colleagues will join us to uncover insights that will improve efficiency, resilience, and risk management in the digital age. The day will include presentations, panel sessions, networking, and a delicious lunch.
All SASIG events operate under Chatham House Rule and there is no charge to attend. Lunch and refreshments for this event are kindly provided by our hosts.

Fraud and the enterprise: Costing businesses as much as individuals
Thursday 12 June 2025
9.30am – 3.30pm
Camden, London
In association with Which?
Fraud is often dismissed as low-level crime, but it’s a fast-growing threat with high rewards, targeting both individuals and enterprises, especially those in the financial sector. Join us at our new Fraud and the enterprise event for a timely discussion on how scams impact us all, how reporting helps disrupt criminal networks, and what we can do to better protect ourselves, and our organisations.
Our expert speakers will dive into the latest scam trends, the true cost of fraud, from reputational damage to financial impacts, and the critical steps organisations must take to protect consumers and restore confidence. We’ll also cover the rise in youth cybercrime, the responsibilities of financial institutions and tech platforms, and why building trust and awareness is just as vital as investing in cyber defences.
We hope you will join us in London for expert insights, practical strategies, and valuable networking opportunities. The day will feature presentations, panel sessions, networking, and a delicious lunch. We look forward to welcoming you and your colleagues!
