Training Courses for those with SIRO responsibilities.
The role of the Senior Information Risk Owner (SIRO) is a key function and needs to be in place across all areas of the public sector, including but not limited to; Government, Healthcare, Nuclear, Education, and suppliers to these organisations.
This is a very senior role within an organisation and is normally an additional set of responsibilities for a director or similar level. As such, SIROs may need additional support in understanding the role and its responsibilities. Developing a deep and wide understanding of Information Assurance in this way helps the organisation build resilience and support effective and valuable information sharing.
