Last week, Netstar Project Manager, Sarah Barraclough achieved her QA Foundation Certificate in Cyber Security.

The certification covers a comprehensive and high-level overview across industry-standard technology and platforms, illuminating the technology and its specific cyber governance, risk, and assurance challenges.
