Held Hostage by Ransomware: One City’s Story

In the security community, stories are how we warn, educate and inform one another, if only so others will learn from and avoid the same mistakes. Because ransomware has seen such a resurgence in recent years, almost everyone has a ransomware story to tell, but very few are willing to share details about their trials so that others might be more fortunate. Join Stephen Schommer from the City of Sammamish, Washington as he recounts past ransomware experiences, and provides insights and advice to better prepare for and navigate this all-too-common cyber security horror story. Attendees can ask questions after the presentation.
