ABSTRACT
Evolutions in technologies can create new opportunities for malicious actors and cyber criminals to target and exploit Government bodies, and the private sectors’ critical infrastructure and the digital economy for their own profit. Data underpins the ability to make rapid and informed decisions. The Lead the Way: Defence Transformation Strategy and the Defence Data Strategy 2021-2023 recognises that the effective use and management of data is critical to everything Defence does. Unlocking the power of Defence data will help automate processes and reporting, increasing the ability to make informed decisions regarding strategy, capability, and resources. In this session, Jerry Vochteloo, CISO at Dell Technologies will guide the Defence industry on how to build cyber resilience and recover with confidence from a destructive attack and be better prepared for “what if” scenarios. You will learn how to prepare for the long-term success of mission critical operations and proactively integrate a mature recovery capability within an incident response plan.
