Digital Transformation Challenge

During an organisational crisis the executive leadership team will be called upon to take control and manage the situation, often with little time to prepare and with limited information. They will need to defuse tensions, inspire confidence and reassure stakeholders all whilst dealing with a high degree of stress.

This webinar explores the concept of leadership and what it takes to be a resilient leader when faced with a crisis.

In the modern inter-connected world, incidents that have the potential to create more than just a small glitch to operations, can, and will, be felt by others. Employees, clients, shareholders, regulators and the media are perhaps the most obvious. However, there is no longer such a thing as an “isolated incident” and relatively minor disruptions now have the potential to upset the money-making capability of the wider, and often delicately balanced, “commercial web” in which organisations operate.

This webinar looks at how every member of the “commercial web” has a vested interest in ensuring every other member succeeds, and how resilient organisations invest in building strong relationships “while the sun shines” so they can draw on goodwill when it rains.

Chris will be presenting on risk and resilience in 2017, looking specifically at:

- The current risks to businesses
- The current threat landscape
- The importance of resilience, including cyber resilience and how it is more than just cyber security
- What companies need to do to become and stay resilient

Today's cyber attackers are fast, well-funded and organised, and they are using all the latest techniques to stay one step ahead of your security. Traditional approaches to cyber security that focus on technology alone are not providing companies with enough resilience to protect against threats across their infrastructure and business critical applications.

Join Sungard AS and Alert logic for a live webinar as we discuss security-in-depth strategies and review how technology, people and processes need to be in place to support and secure business infrastructure and set the foundation of your security strategy.

Key Considerations in a Cyber Security Strategy:

• What would the impact be on your business if you were the victim of a cyber-attack?
• What security vulnerabilities are you exposed to throughout your infrastructure?
• How are you going to identify and remediate a cyber-attack - especially as cyber crime is a24x7 business?
• Who do you have protecting your critical applications and data from attacks, and do they have the right skills?
