Litigation issues and conflicts associated with complying with cross-border data protection laws are more prevalent today due to the expansive reach of data. Navigating multiple regulatory frameworks requires cross-border and cross-office awareness and cooperation by a team that has a clear understanding of the overall picture.  This panel will discuss international cross-border incident response and how to be prepared.

Recovery is an important and emerging category of incident response, which has seen a major increase in expenses due to complex infrastructure setups and the business impact resulting from shifts in threat actor tactics, techniques, and motives. An intelligence-led recovery approach enables action that can eradicate threats rapidly and can lower the ultimate time and cost of recovery by reducing the scope of the entire recovery effort while keeping as much of the operation online.

This panel will discuss the aftermath of a cyber breach incident--how does a company move forward and become whole again?  Our panelists will explain what "bricking" actually is and its impact; we will also examine the importance of data recovery and back-ups; likelihood of the need to replace servers and other hardware; and the financial considerations inherent in cyber insurance coverage and claims.

2. Nathaniel Hall, Arete
3. Simon Milner, Miller Insurance Services LLP

Data recovery can make all the difference between ongoing business success and failure, but it’s rarely as easy as it might seem. Ransomware now targets backup files and backup software to disrupt recovery, leaving organisations with no alternative but to pay up. We will discuss how data recovery is evolving and how best to ensure the best possible outcome.
