Back in Manchester for round two at Jisc Security Conference 2026

Last year we spent two days at Manchester Central with the people who keep universities, colleges and research organisations running. This November we’re back in the same hall, and we’d like to pick up those conversations where we left off.

Last November at Manchester Central

One line on our stand started most of the conversations

Everyone had antivirus. Everyone had a firewall. Ransomware still got through. We’ve recovered 200+ schools, colleges and universities, and that line is the reason so many people stopped to talk. It’s a conversation we want to keep having.

Three conversations worth having while you're in Manchester

Recovery, not just prevention

We've brought 200+ organisations back from ransomware. Talk us through your incident plan and we'll tell you honestly where it would hold and where it wouldn't.

Infrastructure that doesn't depend on someone else

Our own ISP and six UK data centres, running multi-campus networks for colleges and universities from data centre to desktop.

A clear view of your blind spots

Ask about a free Security Posture Assessment, so you leave Manchester knowing what's connected, where the gaps are and what to fix first.

Book time with the team

Pick a day and a rough time. We’ll confirm your slot by email before the conference.

We’ll use your details to contact you about this event. See our Privacy Policy for more information.

Before November

In Manchester a little earlier? Join us at the Crystal Maze.

“Inside The Next Breach” is a free half-day on the AI threat and what 200+ real recoveries have taught us, followed by the Crystal Maze itself. A longer conversation than a stand allows, six weeks ahead of the conference.

See you on Stand 18
