The MicDrop Capture the Flag (CTF) event will highlight Rubrik Security Cloud's (RSC) key features, helping customers understand how RSC provides cyber resiliency for their organizations. Features highlighted include: Data Protection – Learn how to back up and recover files, databases, and virtual machines to ensure data availability and ransomware resilience. Data Threat Analytics – Use IOCs, including file patterns, YARA rules, and hashes, to identify and analyze potential threats. Cyber Recovery – Explore automated and network-isolated recovery methods to restore operations securely and perform forensic analysis. Data Security Posture – Identify and monitor sensitive data exposure to improve security and compliance. This hands-on experience will provide insight into how these tools work together to protect, detect, and recover from cyber threats by demonstrating their value in an engaging CTF format using a real-world ransomware scenario.

Join us for the Virtual Lab Workshop! During this exclusive session, the host will introduce the Protection of Kurbernetes Containers with VEEAM learning paths. This lab focuses on navigating the Veeam Kasten interface, creating a backup policy and restoring an application. Participants will also be introduced to blueprints and transform sets, providing a comprehensive understanding of protection strategies for Kubernetes environments. This lab aims to equip IT professionals with the foundational knowledge needed to manage and optimize Kubernetes container protection in real-world settings, emphasizing best practices and avoiding common pitfalls.

As bad actors leverage AI to make ransomware attacks more prevalent and effective, data center operators and security leaders must move beyond traditional disaster recovery plans and think strategically about cyber recovery. Join WWT Cyber Resiliency Expert Michael Ambruso and Emerging AI and Cybersecurity Solutions Architect Todd Hathaway as they discuss ways in which you can optimize your data recovery plan when — not if — you fall victim to attack. Michael and Todd clarify the important difference between disaster and cyber recovery, dive into the role AI is playing in offense and defense, and offer guidance on how to best increase resiliency throughout your organization.
