Virtualization technologies like VMware has brought about a critical need for robust security measures to protect sensitive data and ensure the integrity of virtualized environments. Ransomware can sneak inside of your network and corrupt not only your systems at the OS level, but also within the virtualization layer, where your VMDKs and VHDXs live. By corrupting those files you're left completely in the dark by not even able to manage your virtual infrastructure (or what's been left). Book this date – 22nd of June, SecOps 360 Day – Strategies to fight ransomware and improve communications between SecOps and IT Teams.
Enterprises often faces an internal “battle” between security teams and admin teams. This event will help you to improve your internal process where you might see a way for improvement between IT Operations (ITOps) and Security teams. This event brings you strategies for improving communication, fostering collaboration, and synchronizing processes between these vital units.
In today's digital landscape, organizations across industries face an ever-growing threat from ransomware attacks. The consequences of falling victim to ransomware can be catastrophic, resulting in financial loss, data breaches, reputational damage, and operational disruptions.

Example Use Case
One of the sessions during the event is actually a use case from an admin I met already once during VMworld Barcelona, and he is also a blogger. He works for a large telecom company and he was facing a challenge to verify compatibility of hardware for latest versions of VMware vSphere. As you might know, Runecast has a new feature that allows you to save a valuable time for searching for compatible hardware or IO device. Runecast allows you to verify the compatibility of your Server IO devices against the VMware HCL I/O Devices. This gives the admin a detailed view of which components are safe for an upgrade for let's say to the latest version of vSphere.
So I think it will be an interesting event for virtualization admins and security teams. You all know that Runecast has been build by admins, for admins.
Final Words
In the battle against ransomware, SecOps 360 Day is a must-attend event for security teams looking to strengthen their defense posture. As an online and FREE gathering of experts, it offers unparalleled opportunities to expand knowledge, learn from real-world experiences.
