      WEBINAR: BE BREACH READY. SHUT DOWN THE CYBER-ATTACK, NOT YOUR BUSINESS. THE GOAL IS UPTIME.

      Today, organisations try to stop cyber-attacks by shutting down whole network segments or whole of business. They are in fact inflating the impact of the attack by shutting down systems and critical infrastructure that have not been compromised. Shutting down your business as a response to a supply chain related cyber-attack is no longer the only option.

      Date:  Tuesday, 28 October 2025

      Cost:  Members - No charge  /  Non-members $50
      RSVP:  Monday, 27 October 2025


      ABOUT THIS EVENT 

      Cyber incident response needs to shift from "shutdown and investigate" to a more nuanced strategy aligned with organisational needs for continuous operations, during and after an attack. The ability to contain a breach attempt while maintaining organisational uptime is now considered foundational to cyber resilience planning.

      Businesses can now architect for breach containment and remediation, aligning cyber resilience with their Business Continuity and Minimum Viability planning. In this professional development session, we will discuss this topic and how businesses can architect for remediation and Be Breach Ready.
