Dive deep into a real ransomware attack with guest speakers from Coalition Inc —see how it unfolds and learn how to protect yourself
What actually happens when a ransomware attack hits an organisation?
Join us for a behind-the-scenes look at a real ransomware incident, as Coalition's Incident Response team takes you through what happened when attackers gained access to an organisation's network, compromised critical systems and disrupted operations.
We'll explore how threat actors can gain access, including phishing, software vulnerabilities and remote access services, before following the incident as it unfolds. Discover how an incident response team investigates an active attack, identifies the initial entry point, isolates affected systems and assesses whether data has been compromised.
We'll also explore the difficult decisions organisations can face when dealing with a threat actor, including whether to engage with attackers and how to manage communications during an incident.
The session will finish with practical lessons from the case study, exploring how organisations can improve their cyber resilience and prepare for the possibility of a serious cyber attack.
No technical expertise is required. Whether you work in IT, cybersecurity, technology or digital leadership, or you're simply interested in understanding how ransomware attacks happen and how organisations respond, this session will give you a fascinating insight into what happens inside a real cyber incident.
