In today’s digital world, cyber incidents are no longer a question of “if” but “when.” From ransomware attacks and email spoofing to insider threats and data breaches, organizations of all sizes are vulnerable—and the consequences can be severe.

Join us on September 15th at TheMerode, for an eye-opening session held by international law firm CMS, where they’ll walk you through real-life cyber incident scenarios and share practical do’s and don’ts straight from the trenches. Learn how to respond effectively when your systems are compromised, your data is held hostage, or your reputation is on the line.

This session will cover:

• What to do in the first critical hours of a cyber attack

• How to engage with cyber insurers, forensic experts, and legal counsel

• Whether and how to negotiate with threat actors

• The legal and strategic implications of paying a ransom

• Best practices for communicating with stakeholders and authorities

• How to turn a crisis into a catalyst for long-term resilience

Whether you're in IT, legal, communications, or leadership, this session will equip you with the insights and tools to navigate a cyber crisis with confidence.

Don’t wait for a breach to find out you’re unprepared.
