DORA and NIS2 have changed the way companies are approaching network security and resiliency, yet many organisations are clinging to the idea that resiliency begins and ends with backups and out of date disaster recovery plans. So how do we untangle the services and dependencies holding your IT estate together, and what is the role of partners in making sure the limits of policy and resources don't get tested by a security incident?

In this webinar we'll be looking at what organisations are getting wrong about resiliency and how to get ahead of the modern threat landscape. Join Robert Kelly, founder of HRI, Bill Unsworth, director of cloud for UK & Ireland at IBM and Declan Hussey, CEO of DNA IT Solutions to explore the difference between high availability, disaster recovery, and cyber resiliency.
