Reimagining Recovery: What Data Resilience Means in the AI Era

Reimagining Recovery: What Data Resilience Means in the AI Era

ABOUT THIS EVENT

If you haven’t been hit by a ransomware attack, yet, count yourselves amongst the lucky ones.

Such attacks are a growing concern in Singapore and globally, where they have been an escalating business threat. Reported ransomware cases in Singapore climbed more than 20% in 2024, while infected infrastructures increased 67%, according to Cyber Security Agency of Singapore (CSA).

Affected organisations that do not have good data management practices can face massive disruptions, or worse, fail to recover their most critical data.

Growing adoption of artificial intelligence (AI) also brings added risks and complexities to business environments. The technology reshapes how data flows and decisions are made, effectively changing the way companies operate.

CSA recommends organisations roll out key measures to protect their data and systems against ransomware attacks, including maintaining backups regularly and hardening their system configurations.

What does that exactly mean in an AI era, where wider data access is needed to power workloads and decision-making? What is the “Minimum Viable Company” mindset and why should it matter in your ability to recover after a cybersecurity incident?

Find out in Reimaging Recovery: What Data Resilience Means in the AI Era – a FutureCISO roundtable, on 27th January, hosted in partnership with Commvault. In this discussion, cybersecurity and infrastructure specialists can learn more about:

  • Safeguarding systems in an AI-powered threat landscape
  • Building resilience against ransomware
  • Protecting critical data from corruption and compromise
  • Integrating data infrastructure and cybersecurity incident management

Don’t just rely on luck to combat ransomware. Join our roundtable to uncover what it takes to keep your critical data and systems running after an attack.

Who should attend?

  • CIO / CTO / CISO
  • VP / Head of Technology & Infrastructure
  • VP / Head of Cyber Resilience
