6-7pm: Drinks & networking

Many organisations have incident response plans, playbooks and mechanisms to response to cyber-incidents – but the reality is that, unfortunately, the response to a cyber-attack goes way beyond all of these.

During this roundtable we will be discussing what board and C-suite leaders can learn from recent attacks – and how a holistic approach to crisis incident management can be created, practiced and understood.
