Who was celebrating at the Security Excellence Awards?
The Security Excellence Awards 2024, held last night in London, celebrated innovation and some outstanding personal achievements in cybersecurity.
Computing's annual Security Excellence Awards brought together cybersecurity industry leaders, experts and innovators to celebrate in style at the grade II listed One Moorgate Place, in the heart of the city.
We may be living through interesting times, but everyone at the awards enjoyed a rare night off to showcase their own work, recognise the achievements of colleagues and celebrate excellence.
