Cybersecurity is a team sport — and in the first 72 hours of a ransomware attack, every decision counts. In this inaugural episode of “Decrypted,” David Simon and William Ridgway, co-heads of Skadden's Cybersecurity and Data Privacy Practice, walk listeners through a realistic triple-extortion ransomware incident scenario — from the moment a security operations center flags unusual outbound traffic and ransom notes start appearing to the legal, regulatory and communications decisions that follow. Tune in for their insights about what separates companies that weather these crises from those that don't.
"Decrypted" is your go-to resource for scenario-based discussions, regulatory and enforcement deep dives, and interviews with experienced practitioners and thought leaders in the cybersecurity and data privacy space. Each episode will track how cyber, privacy and AI risks show up in real life — inside incident response calls, board discussions, regulator interactions and litigation strategies.
