Approach Cyber Presentation – Thibault Van Win
“72 hours held hostage: the story of a cyberattack and lessons to prevent your organisation from becoming the next target”
One simple click. Three days of chaos. Months of recovery.
In this compelling presentation, Thibaut Van Win, SOC lead at AXS Guard (by Approach Cyber), shares a first-hand account of a ransomware attack that paralysed a Belgian financial services firm.
By reconstructing the attack minute by minute, he reveals the vulnerabilities that were exploited, the human errors that were made, the tools used by cybercriminals – and, more importantly, the keys to an effective response.
You will discover:
- How an attack can spread within a matter of hours,
- Why traditional security tools are no longer sufficient,
- Best practices for strengthening your cyber resilience,
- How well-prepared crisis management can save your business.
An authentic, informative and essential account for any organisation seeking to protect itself against today’s threats.
