Incident Response 101: What Happens After the Hack?

Ever wonder what happens behind the scenes when a company gets hacked? Restoring systems, containing the damage, and keeping attackers out for good doesn't happen by magic — it takes skilled professionals to guide the process.

Enter the Incident Responder: part digital detective, part crisis manager. Their job is to figure out what went wrong, kick out the bad actors, and make sure it doesn’t happen again.

Join us for a beginner-friendly presentation on the essential role of Incident Responders in cybersecurity.

From RTFM to BTFM: Helping Shape New Beginnings

In the Information Security ecosystem, stereotypes for practitioners persist, and they’re not always the most flattering. If we approached these stereotypes like we do our technical work, perhaps we could do better for ourselves and others. What can we do to help dispel the stereotypes and can we use them to our advantage?

For those of us who have been in the industry for years, we may be used to how things are or how ‘they used to be’, but we sometimes miss how what we do affects those looking in from the outside wanting to break in. I share how I was affected when I first moved into the information security world, lessons I’ve learned in my time within the industry, and ways to make small improvements to pave a better path for those to come after us.
