Lancaster

Fraser House Hub

Overview An interactive scenario-based experience where you will walk through what goes on behind the scenes when a major cyber attack strikes.

Using real-life news stories from companies like M&S, Co-op, and Jaguar Land Rover, you’ll get a taste of how they navigated their toughest moments. Prepare for an interactive session that breaks down the jargon and shows that the best defense involves people from every background working together.

What to expect
As a cyberattack hits your fictitious company, you will work through the critical operational and strategic hurdles that emerge during a real-time crisis.
You and your peers will discuss and decide how you will respond to the ever-changing situation and no-win dilemmas.
You'll walk away with a deeper understanding of how different roles come together during a crisis, and the inspiration to rethink your own approach to business resilience. This is an in-person event that promises to be insightful and engaging.

Who is this for?
This session is designed to bridge the gap between cyber strategy and business reality:

Business Leaders: Gain a practical, jargon-free understanding of how to lead and make high-stakes decisions during a cyber crisis. Cyber & IT Experts: Gain insights into the commercial and operational pressures that drive business-level responses.

No prior technical knowledge is required—just a willingness to collaborate and share your perspective. More info and registration at the link.
