The Line Went Down: A Cyber Attack Mystery for Manufacturers
When production suddenly stops and a ransom note appears, what do you do first?
Join Kansas City Manufacturing Network for an interactive, manufacturing focused tabletop exercise led by Jarrad Shull. In this session, attendees step into leadership roles and make real time decisions during a simulated cyber incident that feels very real to the shop floor.
This is not a technical cybersecurity class. No IT background is required. Instead, you will work through real world choices under pressure as you uncover how the attack started, how it spread, and what should happen in the first critical hours after discovery.
You will experience how quickly a cyber event can impact operations, people, and leadership decisions inside a manufacturing organization.
