Cyber Crisis Management – How to Prepare, Respond, and Recover from a Cyber Attack

Cyber threats are no longer a question of if, but when. And when they strike, having a real, tested crisis management plan can make the difference between recovery and catastrophe.
This episode explores how organizations can move from reactive firefighting to proactive readiness — with real-world examples from the banking sector, insights into national cyber exercises, and lessons learned from failure.
