Roundtable: Cyber Resilience 2026
From Prevention to Recoverability
Date: 24 September 2026 | 14:00–18:00
Location: BIT Data center, Ede
Capacity: 15 participants
Language: Dutch
Join our exclusive roundtable on Cyber Resilience.
During this interactive session, IT managers, architects, security professionals, and infrastructure specialists will discuss the challenges surrounding cyber resilience, identity security, ransomware, recoverability, and Zero Trust.
No sales presentations. Just an in-depth discussion focused on practical experiences, lessons learned, and current developments.
Cyberattacks affect the entire digital chain: people, processes, infrastructure, data, identities, and network connections. The central question is therefore not only how organizations try to prevent an attack, but above all:
How do we limit the impact and restore business operations quickly, securely, and demonstrably?
During this roundtable, we bring together the broader information security perspective with concrete solutions for protection, segmentation, and recovery. Leon Mahler will first place cyber resilience in the context of risk, compliance, behavior, and organizational responsibility. Rubrik and Illumio will then show how organizations can technically support and demonstrate this resilience.
Why a data center as the venue?
While many roundtables are held at castles and country estates, we deliberately chose the place where digital continuity is actually delivered: an operational data center.
Cyber resilience is not just about policies and software. Every digital service depends on physical security, power, cooling, connectivity, redundancy, and expert management. At BIT, we make this physical foundation visible and connect it to the protection of data, identities, and networks.
Roundtable: Cyber Resilience 2026
An initiative by Yuma
When
- Thursday, 24 September 2026
- Program: 14:00 - 17:00
- Networking drinks: 17:00 - 18:00
Where
- BIT-Meetme (Galileïlaan 17, Ede)
Why attend
- In-depth content without commercial pitches
There will be no sales presentations. The session is entirely focused on an in-depth discussion of current developments and lessons learned from real-world experience. - Small-scale and focused on interaction
The event is limited to 15 participants. This small-scale format is specifically designed to encourage open discussion, knowledge sharing, and the exchange of real-world experiences among IT and security professionals. - Learn from and exchange ideas with experts on current topics
Participants will engage directly with experts from Rubrik, Illumio, Arrow Nederland, and Yuma on critical board-level topics such as NIS2, DORA, ransomware, Zero Trust Segmentation, and identity recovery. - Focus on the impact after an incident (recovery capability)
Rather than focusing solely on prevention and keeping attackers out, the roundtable addresses the reality of what happens when an incident does occur: recoverability (how quickly can the organization recover?) and containment (how do you limit the damage and lateral movement across the network?). The goal is for participants to leave with concrete next steps.
Who is it for
- IT managers
- IT architects
- Security professionals
- CISOs
- Infrastructure managers
- Operational team leaders
Cost
Attendance is complimentary.
However, the number of places is limited to approximately 15 participants to ensure sufficient opportunity for interaction and knowledge sharing.

Reserve your seat at the table
The question is no longer whether you will be affected, but how quickly you can get back up and running afterwards. That is what we will discuss on Thursday, 24 September, from 14:00 to 18:00 at BIT in Ede.
Fifteen seats*, relevant real-world insights, no sales pitch.
