Webinar
Are You Really Ready?
A practical conversation on recovery readiness in OT & ICS environments.
12pm EDT (4pm UTC) 25th March 2026
Most organizations believe they’re ready to recover
Very few have actually proven it.
Join OT security specialist Mike Holcomb and Macrium Technical Solutions Engineer Jack Mansfield for a practical session exploring why confidence doesn’t always equal readiness — and what validated recovery actually looks like in complex OT environments.
What This Session Covers
The Reality Gap
- Why backup confidence ≠ recovery readiness
- Where OT/ICS recovery fails in practice
- Tribal knowledge and undocumented processes
- The leadership question: “Are we good?”
The Recovery Readiness Framework
- Identifying critical IT & OT systems
- Understanding dependencies and recovery order
- Defining realistic, tested RTOs and RPOs
- Architecting for recovery (3-2-1-1-0, air-gapped considerations)
- Validating restores - from integrity checks to full recovery drills and tabletop exercises
