Case Study: Hypo Tirol Bank: IT Service Continuity Management as a Bridge Between Cybersecurity and Business Resilience

Cyberattacks, regulatory requirements, and increasing dependencies on IT services present organizations with new challenges. This presentation demonstrates how IT Service Continuity Management (ITSCM) acts as a connecting element between Information Security Management (ISMS), Business Continuity Management (BCMS), and IT governance. Using current examples, practical approaches are presented for how companies can sustainably strengthen their digital and operational resilience through integrated ITSCM.

Contents:

• Why is ITSCM becoming increasingly important as a component of ISMS & BCMS?
• Regulatory drivers: DORA, NIS2, RKE-G, CRA, AI Act
• Interaction and interfaces of ITSCM (ISO 27031:2025), cybersecurity, risk management, BCM, and crisis management
• Practical examples of current events (e.g., Crowdstrike outage in 2024, ECB disruption in 2025)
• Benefits and added value of a structured ITSCM approach for resilience and governance. The aim is to provide participants with a practical overview of how ITSCM can make a crucial contribution to digital and operational resilience.

Case study A1 Telekom Austria: Blackout Resilience: How to ensure telecommunications even in exceptional situations

In crisis and disaster scenarios, functioning telecommunications are essential for businesses to remain operational. The blackout on the Iberian Peninsula in April 2025 demonstrated how quickly and severely the failure of communication systems can impact organizations. This makes adequate preparation all the more crucial. Seemingly simple but often ineffective solutions frequently provide a false sense of security. A methodical approach, developed by experts in the communications industry, provides true peace of mind.

Human Risk, AI & Adaptive Security: The next level for effective cybersecurity

In an increasingly digitalized and interconnected world, humans remain the biggest vulnerability to cyberattacks. Traditional security measures are increasingly reaching their limits. This presentation will show you how human risk management, artificial intelligence, and adaptive security policies, as a holistic concept, can significantly improve cybersecurity. Using practical examples, it will demonstrate how human risks can be specifically identified and minimized, how AI detects threats early on, and how adaptive security policies dynamically adjust security measures to user behavior and current risk levels. You will receive concrete suggestions on how these methods can help companies ensure compliance, reduce attack surfaces, and establish a sustainable security culture.

From Cloud to AI: Can We Learn from the Security Mistakes of the Past?

AI is the new craze, just as the cloud was a decade ago. Back then, many companies rushed into implementation without regard for security—and spent years catching up. Today, history threatens to repeat itself. While AI is celebrated as a driver of automation and efficiency, the risk lies in leaving the AI ​​itself unprotected. In this presentation, we draw lessons from the cloud era and examine what’s at stake if we address AI security too late.

Ransomware Reality Check: From “When” to “If”

Ransomware remains the biggest cyber threat to businesses worldwide, reaching unprecedented scale and impact. Despite the takedown of two major ransomware groups—LockBit and ALPHV—the overall volume of attacks remains largely unchanged, and the cost is projected to reach $265 billion annually by 2031.

Contrary to the statistics, however, ransomware doesn’t necessarily have to be a question of “when”—security teams have the power to make it a question of “if.”

In this session, David Berger, Regional Director at Pentera, will present actionable strategies to strengthen your defenses and increase your organization’s resilience.
