Webinar “Reflections on cyber resilience – the Ukrainian experience”

02/ 06/ 2022
  Date: 9 June 2022 Time: 16:00 – 17:30 Together with ISACA, KPMG in Ukraine invites you to take part in our webinar: Reflections on cyber resilience – the Ukrainian experience that takes place on June 9 at 16:00. The Russian invasion of Ukraine has increased concerns about cyber security incidents and the resilience of critical business functions. Beyond protecting their employees and supporting the people of Ukraine, businesses also needed to assess their exposure and vulnerability to cyber incidents, technology disruption, and the related impact on (and resilience of) critical services. Many experts correctly predicted that kinetic military action in Ukraine would be synchronised with extensive cyber operations. The Russian invasion of Ukraine proves that we live in a world where business and government must consider simultaneous threats: from nation-backed cyber-attacks on local IT systems and infrastructure, and the direct result of armed conflict. What can the Ukrainian experience of successfully defending domestic infrastructure and territorial integrity teach us about building cyber resilience? And how can we best implement these lessons in other theatres of operations? Our agenda is divided into two parts that cover: Part 1 We will investigate cyber-attacks launched against Ukraine prior to and during the first days and weeks of the war, talking about: The most common types of cyber-attacks; including espionage, fake news, and propaganda. Dealing with cyber disruption, including disruption of telecommunication systems. New attacks launched on critical infrastructure. Threat actors from both sides of the conflict line. The role of volunteers in cyberwar. Part 2 We will also share our personal experience, and the lessons learned by KPMG in Ukraine and our clients, in subjects such as crisis preparedness and management, relocating personnel and their families, and the continuity of IT and business operations during war. We will provide practical tips and explore what operational resilience really looks like, as well as how organisations can remain successful while continuing to adjust from a digital, cyber/physical, and IT perspective. We will discuss: How organisations are managing the ongoing fallout. Lessons learned from the Russian military invasion of Ukraine. What improvements can be made to crisis management programmes to minimise business disruption while keeping employees and assets safe. The positive impact of a proactive co-ordinated response on operational effectiveness. Event speakers include: Oleksiy Yankovski, Partner, Head of IT and Cyber Advisory, KPMG in Ukraine, Vice President of ISACA’s Kyiv Chapter Gennadii Reznichenko, Associate Director, IT and Cyber Advisory, KPMG in Ukraine Artem Kobets, Manager, IT and Cyber Advisory, KPMG in Ukraine The meeting will last about two hours and will be broadcast live via Facebook and YouTube.
