What all Business Leaders should know if they get hacked.
Cyber Crime is rife and we are all vulnerable to attack. Some say it is inevitable at some point!
The session will touch on aspects of incidents that few, if any, of you will have direct experience of — namely, what considerations are at play and how to direct or even conduct a negotiation with extortionists. It will cover ransomware affiliates, Russian hackers, bitcoin ransoms, negotiation tactics, anonymous chat portals, and more — aspects that may be far removed from the day-to-day cyber security matters that your IT departments or external consultants are already hopefully on top of. Awareness and action in this area is not something to be ignored or briefed out and forgotten. It’s clearly a serious Board-level matter in today’s world.
How exposed and how prepared are you?
There will be key takeaways and immediate calls to action on what businesses should focus on in preparing for/preventing a ransomware incident, and what common pitfalls to avoid if you are faced with a ransomware scenario. The session will be interactive with ample time for discussion and Q&As with key experts in this area.
