Event Overview
In chess, the best players think several moves ahead.
In cybersecurity, the stakes are even higher—and ransomware is making bold, calculated moves.
Join IP ServerOne for a half-day, in-person event designed to help you think strategically like a chess master. Learn how to spot vulnerabilities, strengthen your defenses, and stay one step ahead. From legal obligations and recovery strategies to real-world attack scenarios and live demos, you’ll walk away with practical insights you can use right away. Whether you’re a business leader, IT decision-maker, or simply looking to sharpen your approach—this is your chance to rethink how you play the game of ransomware.
Every piece matters—firewalls, WAFs, encryption, backups. But it only takes one small gap… and ransomware strikes where it hurts most. Your King—your business—is in check.
So, when ransomware says “Checkmate,” what’s your next move? Join us to find out.

Who Should Attend?
For business leaders, IT and security teams, and anyone managing cybersecurity or compliance risks.
What to Expect?
A Grandmaster Plan
In chess, every move matters. The same goes for cybersecurity. Learn how to build a smart, proactive defense that stays ahead of ransomware—before it even makes its first move.
Know the Rules of the Game
With the Cybersecurity Act 2024 and PDPA in play, knowing the legal landscape is just as important as defending your systems. Understand what’s expected—and what’s at risk if you ignore the rules.
When the Attack Is in Play
Attacks often start small—a click, a download, an overlooked gap. Discover how ransomware spreads, how attackers think, and how to respond effectively when the game is suddenly in motion.
When Plan Z Fails—What’s Next?
Backups failed. The breach happened. Sometimes, paying the ransom becomes the last resort. Learn the right steps to take, how to manage the process securely, and salvage what’s left.

Opening Moves: Laying the Groundwork
In chess, every player opens differently—some strike fast, others build quietly. But all play to win through strategy, not luck.
Your cybersecurity journey is no different. Every tool—SSL, WAF, backups, DR plan—is a piece on your board.
Knowing what they do is one thing. Knowing where to place them, how and when to use them—that’s what builds a strong defense.
In this session, we’ll walk you through ransomware protection at every level:
- Zero-cost DIY: No budget, no expertise? Do it yourself with smart, essential moves.
- Lean-team ready: Got some tools and know-how? Maximize what you have.
- Fully managed: Big budget? Go all-in—or offload to the pros.
Whatever your starting point, the right opening move lays the groundwork for everything that follows.
Speaker: CL Lee | Managing Director, IP ServerOne
2:30 PM
Know the Rules: Cybersecurity Act Every Business Must Play By
In chess, knowing the rules is how you stay in the game—one wrong move can cost you. Knights move in L-shapes, bishops glide diagonally—every piece has its purpose, and every rule matters. It’s the same in business.
In this session, get familiar with the “rulebook” of cybersecurity—key takeaways from the Cybersecurity Act and PDPA, without the legal jargon. Learn how these laws shape your responsibilities, influence daily operations, and impact your overall strategy.
And just like a watchtower on the board, a well-placed Security Operations Center (SOC) helps you spot threats early, ensure compliance, and stay in play.

Check, Not Mate (Yet): The Art of Ransomware Response
When ransomware hits and Plan Z fails—no backups, no BCP, no clean exit—what’s your next move?
In this session, get a behind-the-scenes look at what really happens during a ransomware crisis. Through real-world cases, learn what to expect if paying the ransom becomes your only option—who you’re dealing with, how the process works, and the risks involved.
But paying isn’t the only move. It’s not just about avoiding ransomware—it’s about building resilience. Walk away with practical tips to help your business prepare for, withstand, respond to, and recover from an attack.
