Microsoft Security CISO Workshop: The Day After the Breach: Can Your Business Still Operate?

Posted : 10 August 2026

Posted In : Webinars

If your organisation suffered a cyberattack tomorrow, how quickly could you detect it, contain it, and recover critical business services?

Downtime costs money. Lost data damages trust. Prolonged disruption impacts revenue, customer relationships, and business growth. Yet many organisations still focus primarily on preventing attacks, with limited understanding of how resilient they would be when prevention fails.

The reality is that cyber resilience goes far beyond backups and disaster recovery. It requires the ability to identify compromised identities, contain threats quickly, maintain critical operations, and recover with confidence. Organisations adopting a Zero Trust approach recognise that breaches can happen and focus on reducing impact, limiting disruption, and accelerating recovery.

In this exclusive Softwerx webinar, we’ll explore what happens in the critical hours following a cyber incident and examine how Microsoft technologies, including Microsoft Entra ID, Defender XDR, Sentinel, Purview, and recovery solutions, can help organisations build a modern cyber resilience strategy.

You’ll discover:

  • What separates organisations that recover in hours from those dealing with days or weeks of disruption
  • The most common resilience gaps found across Microsoft environments
  • How Zero Trust principles help reduce the impact of a breach
  • Practical steps to improve detection, containment, and recovery readiness
  • How to assess whether your organisation can continue operating when prevention fails

Because resilience isn’t measured by whether you’re breached. It’s measured by how effectively you respond.
