Huntress: From Alert to Action: The Decisions That Define an Incident

Discussion Points
1. Where does time really run out during an incident: detection, escalation, or decision-making?
2. What alert looked routine until it was not, and what made the team realise it was real?
3. Where does decisiveness break down: unclear ownership, fear of acting, or waiting for more evidence?
4. Who is trusted to isolate a system at 2 a.m., and how was that trust earned?
5. How should organisations treat someone who acts quickly and gets it wrong versus someone who waits and acts too late?
From Alert to Action: The Decisions That Define an Incident
Attack timelines have shrunk from hours to minutes, while attackers increasingly hide inside normal activity using valid credentials and trusted tools. Detection technology is rarely the main gap anymore. The real gap is decisiveness: ownership, trust, and the willingness to act before all the evidence is available.
Agenda
Welcomed attendees are integrated into a curated networking space, fostering direct interactions for ice-breaking and relationship-building before engaging in substantive, collaborative discussions.
Shifting to a sit-down discussion with drinks, this promotes open, thoughtful dialogue on a set topic agenda, aimed at fostering collaboration and deepening connections in a relaxed, supportive setting.
The evening culminates with a luxury meal, offering exquisite cuisine in an elegant setting, enhancing networking opportunities, and providing a memorable experience that strengthens professional bonds among attendees.
The finale features a wrap-up and Q&A session, where sponsors address the roundtable, followed by drinks and networking, enabling direct engagement and planning of actionable next steps in a collaborative environment.
