Cyber incidents and threats continue to evolve in complexity, size and frequency.  Changes to the regulatory environment, public expectations regarding the security of personal and private information, and potential consequences for failing to be prepared are all leading concerns for Australian businesses in 2025. 

It is an unfortunate truth that 1 in 3 Australian businesses will suffer a data breach cyber incident, costing between $35,000 to $90,000 for SME businesses.  When a cyber incident occurs, every minute is critical to the business and the chance that they will emerge from the incident with as limited interruption and loss as possible. 

Against this backdrop, knowing who will be involved, how they can assist and what you will need to do at each stage of the incident from discovery of the breach, to remediation and recovery, and all the way through to post-incident stages is critical.

as they delve into their roles and responsibilities during a cyber incident; how their roles affect and impact the overall recovery result achieved; the benefits they add to clients’ recovery success; and lessons they have learnt from their practice. 

They will also lead attendees through an example cyber incident from initial discovery of the incident to post-recovery considerations and policy coverage questions, sharing their experiences along the way.
