What a Ransomware Disaster Teaches Us About Readiness
This talk explores a real-world ransomware incident that caused millions in damages and how it could have been mitigated with proper pentesting and incident readiness. We’ll uncover the key failures that led to disaster, the overlooked signals, and the missing preparation that turned compromise into catastrophe. Attendees will walk away with practical insights on strengthening their detection, response, and recovery capabilities before an attacker forces the issue.
