In this session we will:
- Have the attendees form teams that will respond to specific phases of a simulated ransomware attack
- The scenarios will be broken down into phases and strategies will be discussed for each phase
- Individual teams will be called on to present their strategy to the larger group and to answer questions from the group on why they chose that strategy
- Prizes will be given to the teams that have the most complete and the most creative responses to each phase of the exercise
- There will be hard copies of the scenarios / strategies from each of the phase of the exercise as well as digital assets that can be used by the attendees later
