Vikki Williams

I’m currently Head of Cyber Security for a private University but although I have 20 years experience around infosec / GRC I’ve also worked in TV drama, various areas of the BBC, the NHS and higher education.
I also spend what little free time I have volunteering with a Scout Group as a Group Lead Volunteer & Cub Scout Leader providing outdoor and life skills to children aged 4-17.
