Optus, Medibank and Pinnacle Health: How to respond to a cyber attack

Overview

In the recent high-profile attacks of Optus, Medibank and Pinnacle Health, cyber criminals used a number of different attack methods to gain access. 

While a cyber attack can be very disrupting for organisations it’s not all doom and gloom: these three organisations all dealt with aspects of their cyber-attacks really well. 

Join Peter Bailey as he discusses what happened, how the organisation dealt with it and why doing your homework and being prepared can make a real difference to how you come out the other side. 

This interactive discussion-style event will be capped at 15 attendees. You will be encouraged to ask questions and actively contribute your perspectives.
