What happens when a ransomware attack hits… and you’re also holding a glass of premium whiskey?

We had an incredible evening in Portland co-hosting a live ransomware tabletop and whiskey tasting at the Multnomah Whiskey Library, with our partners at Constangy, Brooks, Smith & Prophete, LLP. Huge thanks to Sean Hoar, CISSP, CIPP for co-presenting and bringing his expert insights as a former DOJ cyber attorney.

With every new twist in the scenario—from vendor compromise to ransom negotiation—we paused to say: “We’re going to need a stiff drink!” …and then poured the next spirit. It was a blast.

The conversations were rich, the energy was high, and one attendee told us it was the “best tabletop I’ve been to in years.” We couldn’t agree more.

More events like this are coming soon—stay tuned.
