With insights drawn from research involving over 6,000 employees, she’ll deliver actionable advice on behavioral interventions that really work. Don’t miss this opportunity to learn how metrics can shape more effective human risk management strategies! 🔍 #Cybersecurity #HumanRiskManagement #DataDriven #WICCON #NorthwaveCyberSecurity

How do you combine Dungeons & Dragons with incident response? 🐉 You'll find the answer at WICCON 2024, organised by Women In Cybersecurity Community Association, where our colleagues Maresa V. and Martine Koch will hold a fun and interactive workshop. Get to know the duo hosting the incident response workshop titled "Defender Chronicles: the defeat of the ransomware curse", in this short and personal introduction video, presented by Jaimy T., host during WICCON 2024. Outtakes included! 🎬 ✨ "We're going to explore the art of incident response—D&D style. We're inviting the people embark on a new way of thinking, to make it easier for them and to simplify things. The journey will be full of unexpected twists, a touch of humor, and a chance to bond together in a D&D-style campaign. The challenge is to defeat the Cryptic Sorceress, recover the crown jewels, and gain resilience in the face of digital mayhem." 🧙♀️ 💎 Join both ladies Thursday, 31st of October, from 14:00 - 16:00 for their workshop at WICCON 2024. #WICCON2024 #NorthwaveCyberSecurity #Womenincybersecurity #workshop #incidentresponse

Let's work together to navigate your NIS2 journey with confidence! 💪 Today marks the deadline for EU Member States to transpose the NIS2 Directive into national law. An important milestone, and yet there is still much to clarify and act upon. We have been hearing from many organisations wanting to know what they should do to prepare and how to get started.  Compliance should be the result of a comprehensive and continuous approach to cyber security that fits the risks of your organisation. Every organisation's journey is unique, and for the past 18 years we’ve helped our clients take these essential steps that now become required by law. Additionally, the NIS2 Directive underscores the critical role of board members. Our experience is that cyber resilience begins in the boardroom. Are you in need of clarity and guidance? Or wanting to better understand and act upon the board responsibility for cyber security? Our experts, like Renate Hendriksen, can guide you through these challenges.
