Mastering the Cyber Symphony: practical insights on how to act on threats

Delving into the ever-evolving realm of cybersecurity, this talk offers an insightful exploration of current trends, case studies, and an in-depth analysis of an example of a recent major security incident. Emphasizing the pivotal roles of risk management and proactive security measures, the presentation provides a comprehensive overview of strategies essential for navigating the complex cybersecurity landscape according to best practices in the industry.
We will be focussing on the risks of third-party companies and how these can be attacked to obtain information and critical data of your company. We will analyze the case of an IT service provider affected by malware exploiting security vulnerabilities. It will be discussed how the organization dealt with the security incident and how the threat has been contained as well as what could have happened if the attack would have been successful. Some light will be shed on best practices along the discussion to help IT-GRC decision makers with challenging their own risk management approach. Participants will gain valuable knowledge on best practices, along with actionable guidance on minimizing risk of cyber attacks. We aim to empower with an understanding of the evolving cybersecurity landscape, equipping the participants to enhance organizational resilience.
