This news highlights the lack of response planning and execution that exists within organizations when critical flaws like the one empowering the Hafnium attack are identified.In this webinar, our own Chris Pace and Kev Breen join Microsoft MVP, Nick Cavalancia, to take a look at critical zero-day vulnerabilities and how to respond to them. In addition, Chris and Kev walk through labs, provide a crisis simulation related to Hafnium and cover a number of topics, including:
