SUMMARY:Chambers Wales You've Been Hacked: See a Simulated Cyberattack Unfold Live
DESCRIPTION:Watch a simulated cyberattack unfold on the big screen and learn how to protect your business before it happens for real. \n\n\n\n\nYou may know the theory of a cyberattack\, but would you know what it actually looks like as it unfolds? \nThis unique event\, hosted at Cineworld Cardiff\, will bring the reality of a cyberattack to life on the big screen. \nJoin Stuart Steer of Steer IT Solutions and Jason Douglas of Dragon Defence Cyber Security Solutionsas they take you through a simulated attack in real time. Watch what happens as systems are compromised\, access is lost and pressure builds: \n\nIf your team was suddenly locked out of its systems\, what would you do first?\nHow would you contact customers or members?\nCould you access critical information?\nWho would make the decisions?\nHow quickly could you respond if your usual communication channels were no longer available?\n\nSupported by Cardiff University’s Cyber Innovation Hub\, this is a unique opportunity to move beyond the theory and see how a cyber incident could actually affect the day-to-day running of an organisation. \nYou’ll have the chance to ask questions\, gain practical advice from cyber security specialists\, explore the vulnerabilities that could affect your own organisation and understand the steps you can take now to strengthen your resilience. \nThere will also be time to network with fellow business leaders and professionals\, share experiences and make useful connections. \nWhether you already have cyber security measures in place or are unsure where your vulnerabilities lie\, this session is designed to get you thinking differently about how prepared your business really is\, before you ever have to face the real thing. \nFor more information\, click here.
