EXECUTIVE ROUNDTABLE Ransomware: Sprawdź swoją gotowość w ćwiczeniach CIONET

Co zrobić, gdy Twoja firma stanie się celem ataku ransomware? Sprawdź to bez ryzyka podczas ćwiczenia na spotkaniu CIONET Roundtable. Najpierw zasymulujemy atak, przetestujemy swoje reakcje, a potem wspólnie omówimy wyniki i wskażemy najskuteczniejsze rekomendacje w walce z ransomware. Podczas ćwiczenia wcielisz się w rolę osoby decyzyjnej w firmie sparaliżowanej przez atak. Systemy przestają działać, dostęp do danych jest zablokowany, telefony milkną. Masz kilka godzin na reakcję — albo uratujesz firmę, albo stracisz wszystko. Scenariusz został przygotowany na podstawie prawdziwych ataków we współpracy z partnerem spotkania, firmą Commvault. Potem we wspólnej dyskusji przeanalizujemy decyzje, które zapadły w trakcie symulacji. Co zadziałało, co zawiodło, a co zostało pominięte? Bez owijania w bawełnę – rozmawiamy o realnych zagrożeniach i o tym, jak skutecznie się na nie przygotować. W dyskusji omówimy: Jak rozpoznać, że atak już się rozpoczął? Gdzie najczęściej zawodzą plany Disaster Recovery? Czy prowadzić rozmowy z napastnikami? Jak zorganizować komunikację wewnętrzną podczas incydentu? Co powinien zawierać praktyczny plan przywrócenia ciągłości?

Embark on a culinary journey through the ever-evolving world of digital leadership with our third edition of the CIONET Cookbook: Recipes for Digital Success. Unveiling the intricate trilemma faced by today’s Master Chefs, our trailblazing European CIOs address a challenge at the nexus of customer interests, digital transformation strategies, and IT modernisation. Their secret? Synchronising the gearing between customer, business, and technology to create a frictionless movement through the digital landscape.

The CIONET Cookbook uses the analogy of a five-star restaurant to explain the importance of optimally integrated technology, with the CIO as Master Chef. In order to provide the best service to its customers, a top restaurant must have the right atmosphere, an inviting menu, a well-equipped kitchen, talented and committed front-of-house and kitchen staff and smooth-running processes that ensure an enjoyable experience for diners.

The impact of AI on ICT

The evolution of AI is comparable to that of IT, but it’s happening much faster. As with IT in its early days, AI is becoming deeply embedded in almost every business function. Amara’s Law also applies here: we tend to overestimate AI’s short-term effects and underestimate its long-term impact. This makes it essential to embed AI across your company in a structured way.
