Better understand cross-functional responsibilities during a ransomware incident.
Identify Preparedness Gaps
Identify gaps in organizational planning, coordination, decision authority, and continuity.

YOU'LL LEAVE WITH TOOLS YOU CAN USE IMMEDIATELY
This workshop is designed to provide more than discussion. Participants will receive practical ransomware preparedness checklists they can take back and use within their organizations.
An interactive cross-sector discussion
This will be an interactive cross-sector discussion — not a technical product demonstration or sales presentation.

The workshop is intended to combine short expert perspectives with participant questions, facilitated discussion, and practical takeaways organizations can use immediately.

The workshop is being designed to bring together perspectives that organizations may need during an actual ransomware incident.
Designed for professionals who may have a role when ransomware strikes
