Description

SMEs have become a prime target for cybercriminals. Typically, this vulnerability is due to the immaturity, or simply absence, of a cybersecurity program in these companies.

In this workshop, I will present the theoretical foundations of incident management in small businesses. Then I’ll take a concrete look at how to react to an incident in a small business without preparation, by presenting actions and tools.

In this way, you’ll be equipped with the concepts and practical tools you need to intervene more effectively in the event of an incident.
