Imagine this: You’re drinking your morning coffee when alerts begin exploding across your SOC dashboard. Within minutes, domain controllers begin rebooting, VMs vanish from Hyper-V and VMware clusters, Azure identity lights up with impossible travel, and Defender XDR reports mass token theft.

This super-session simulates a full-scale hybrid cloud breach — from zero-day exploitation → lateral movement → privilege escalation → mass ransomware detonation → AD compromise → Azure takeover → Veeam sabotage — all using real-world techniques from the top threat groups we face today.

Dave walks the audience through:

How the attacker got in

How they moved

How they bypassed MFA/Conditional Access

What logs reveal (and what they don’t)

What the first 5 minutes MUST look like

How Blue Team responds

How containment is executed

How to rebuild Active Directory from scratch

How to restore workloads from Veeam Data Cloud

How to restore trust in identity

How to validate the environment is safe

Attendees will see the entire incident lifecycle — from infiltration → destruction → resurrection — with live demos, ASCII attacker maps, Blue Team dashboards, and real-world playbooks.

This is the closest you can get to a real attack… without crying.
