Global Identity-Aware Resilience for Business Continuity
Hosted by Rubrik
Multinationals are uniquely susceptible to enterprise-wide disruption stemming from identity compromise. Because compromised identities dictate incident severity, leaders must forge partnerships across IT, operations and recovery teams. Building identity-aware resilience ensures rapid restoration, transforming tactical defense into a core business pillar.
Join this session to explore:
- Architecting frameworks for containing identity-driven threats
- Prioritizing critical systems for rapid recovery
- Positioning resilience as a core business decision
