CHICAGO, Feb. 4, 2020 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- High Wire Networks, a leading global technical field, professional and cybersecurity services company, announced today that the company will be holding a cyberattack incident response simulation event at its headquarters in Chicago on March 19.
The half-day event will be run by High Wire Networks' new Chief Information Security Officer, Philip Burnett, who will walk through a real-time simulation of a real-world scenario -- from breach, to detection to response.
"For nearly all businesses, it's not a question of if, but when they'll have to deal with a security breach," said Philip Burnett, CISO at High Wire Networks. "We believe it's everyone's responsibility to be prepared. We want to show our MSP partners and their business customers how to handle a cybersecurity attack when the threat comes knocking on their door."
The interactive and collaborative simulation will leverage High Wire Networks' state-of-the-art Overwatch 24/7 Security Operations Center (SOC) and XDR platform.
The event is free for High Wire Networks partners and their business customers. Chicago-area CIOs, IT managers and business leaders also are welcome to attend free of charge, with no commitment.
Registration for the Overwatch Cyberattack Simulation event is now open. Seating is limited, so register today. Questions about the event can be directed to Susanna Song at 630-635-6717 or [email protected]
