Hear from Hamish Beaton, General Manager- Cyber Security at Kordia, about how Optus, Medibank and Pinnacle Health dealt with recent cyber attacks.
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 Hamish Beaton 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.
As General Manager – Cyber Security Advisory, Hamish is responsible for driving Kordia’s Cyber Advisory and Incident Response practices, ensuring consultants are well placed to deliver outstanding cyber security consulting services for customers looking to secure their organisations.
Hamish is passionate about people leadership and business improvement. When talking cyber security Hamish takes a holistic approach to drive uplifts and improvements to the cyber security posture of both private and government organisations.
Prior to joining Kordia, Hamish had previously served as the Director Cyber Security within the National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC) and had worked across various roles within the New Zealand intelligence community.
When working at the NCSC, Beaton led teams responsible for delivering cyber threat detection and disruption services, as well as advisory and incident response support, to New Zealand’s most nationally significant organisations, and has supported the government’s response to major cyber security threats and risks over the years.
Hamish has a background in foreign languages, graduating from Canterbury University with a bachelor’s degree majoring in Japanese and French, and spent several formative years living and working in Japan. Hamish published his debut novel, “Under the Osakan Sun”, based on his time in Japan and is always happy to give hot travel tips for Japan or elsewhere in Asia.
