Every year brings major cyber incidents with lessons we can't afford to ignore. 2025 has been no exception. One of the best ways to stay ahead of today's top cyberattack vectors is by learning from organizations that have faced serious breaches and asking ourselves, "What can we do to avoid the same pitfalls?"
In this webinar, we’ll break down some of the most significant attacks from the past year, explore how similar threats could impact your organization, and discuss practical steps to prevent, detect, and respond effectively. We’ll also look ahead to the trends likely to shape 2026 and beyond.

Watch the video → take the quiz → fail the phishing test → watch another video → take another quiz.
It’s the rinse-and-repeat cycle that turns even well-meaning employees into frequent clickers — not because they don’t care but because the training never activates the part of the brain that actually spots deception in the wild.
Traditional security awareness training keeps people stuck in defense mode, forever bracing for the next surprise attack. But our brains don’t work well that way. Vigilance fatigue sets in. Rule-based thinking burns out. And eventually, someone clicks.
Join this session as we introduce Deception Lab, a new approach that flips the script. Instead of teaching people how to avoid the wolf, we teach them how to become the wolf.
By learning how deception is designed through guided, ethical gameplay, employees build intuition, pattern recognition, and real-world detection skills — so they can recognize manipulation before it works.SBS Speaker: Nick Podhradsky

Visit May Ormsbee at the SBS booth!
Modern cyber-attacks no longer begin with malware or zero days—they begin with identity. In this interactive, case study driven session, attendees are walked step by step through a real-world cyber intrusion against a major global organization, presented in the exact sequence the attackers followed. From initial access to long term impact, you’ll see what defenders missed, what warning signals were available, and where different decisions could have changed the outcome.
Without revealing the attacker or victim up front, this session places participants in the role of the defender. At key moments, attendees will vote on what to do next, which signals to investigate, and which controls should have triggered alerts. The session concludes by revealing the actual attack and translating its lessons into a practical, prioritized checklist of identity, access, and detection controls financial institutions can apply immediately.
SBS Speaker: Jon Waldman
What really happens after an attacker gets inside your network — and how would you know?
In this session, we'll explore what real attackers do once they gain initial access and whether your current internal penetration testing would actually reveal those actions. Using real-world penetration testing scenarios, we'll discuss how attackers pivot through networks, abuse credentials, and bypass common security controls — and what internal penetration testing uncovers that vulnerability scans often miss.SBS Speaker: Nick Podhradsky
Topic: Microsoft 365 – A Roadmap
Office 365 is everywhere and is used by millions of companies, most likely including yours. But as more data moves to the cloud, the way we protect it must evolve.
