Efficient conduct of internal audits
Internal audits serve as a cornerstone for maintaining the integrity, transparency, and operational efficiency of an organization. These audits are a systematic and objective assessment of an organization's processes, controls, and financial systems, carried out by an independent team within the organization. A well-executed internal audit not only helps in identifying potential risks and areas for improvement but also enhances the overall governance and accountability within the organization. Andrew will shed more light on the efficient conduct of internal audits.

Best practices for conducting risk assessments
Risk analysis and treatment is at the heart of all security activities; decreasing risk levels, driving improvements and, when applied within a management system, delivering a strong security culture. Yet, for many organisations, the risk assessment is a tick-box exercise that is only done because it is a requirement for certification or to win a contract, providing no value and failing to drive necessary change.
During this session we will understand how to identify and analyse threats converting them into risks that we can quantify, prioritise, and address. We will explore how the context of the organisation, performance and strategy influence the process and how a living risk assessment brings the security management system alive. The session will include a practical workshop that facilitates a thorough understanding of the subjects covered.

The Hologram Image Register – what’s next?
The Hologram Image Register (HIR) is a secure register of holographic images, established by the IHMA to safeguard hologram copyright and underpin the use of holograms in security printing. IHMA members register the holograms they produce on behalf of their customers – establishing a record of who makes it, when it was first made and who is using it, benefiting both the holder of the copyright in the hologram and its user. The HIR is operated for the IHMA by the Counterfeiting Intelligence Bureau, a division of the International Chamber of Commerce, a not-for-profit non-governmental organisation accredited by the UN. The Register is operated in absolute confidence by the CIB. Neither IHMA members nor staff have access to the Register, thereby ensuring that commercial information is not compromised.
To date, over 10,000 holograms have been registered with the HIR and the HIR has helped to uncover and prevent several cases of attempted counterfeiting. This presentation will look at how the HIR has evolved over the years, how it’s managed, what is its value to our industry and crucially, with the changes the industry’s seen in the last decade or so in particular, what is the next generation for the HIR.
