Event Synopsis
Cyber resilience is no longer defined solely by an organisation’s ability to prevent cyber-attacks—it’s measured by how effectively it responds and recovers when a breach occurs. While technical teams focus on detection and containment, IT Auditors play a pivotal role in the aftermath, ensuring that governance, compliance, and strategic recovery efforts are properly executed.
This session will explore a case study to uncover the control failures that allowed a major incident to escalate. Participants will also be exposed into key areas such as vendor risk management, network segmentation, and incident response procedures—highlighting how auditors can proactively identify weaknesses and strengthen organisational resilience.
