Minutes to Meltdown: Cyber Recovery When It Counts with Chris Bevil
Most organizations are prepping for disaster recovery when they should be building for cyber recovery, and those are not the same thing.
Recorded live at RSAC Conference 2026, Ron sat down with Chris Bevil, Principal Security AI Strategist at Commvault, to break down what actually happens after a breach hits and why most teams are caught flat-footed.
Chris walks us through Commvault's Minutes to Meltdown tabletop exercise, why isolated recovery environments matter, and how clean data determines whether you get your company back in hours or in 200+ days.
This episode will tell you what separates a team that recovers from a team that unravels.
