Why Cyber Risk Spikes During Disasters - And What It Means for Security, Infrastructure, and Resilience Teams

Many organizations still think about disaster recovery and security as distinct problems. Different teams own them. Different plans exist. But in practice, they’re not separate at all.

When something goes wrong - a weather event, a major outage, a system failure - cyber risk increases. Systems are changing, teams are under pressure, and normal controls don’t always apply. That’s when attackers exploit confusion, stretched teams, and breakdowns in process.

This is why more teams are rethinking disaster recovery as a cyber recovery readiness problem. It means treating disasters themselves as security risks - and integrating security deeply into recovery planning from the start.

Experts in infrastructure, storage, and security from NetApp, AWS, and Elastio will discuss:

• Why cyber incidents so often overlap with outages and operational disruptions
• What teams have learned from real incidents where problems compounded and recovery became harder
• How organizations are building security into cloud migration and DR planning from day one This session is for teams who want battle-tested recovery plans that hold up when things don’t go according to plan.
