In the fast-paced world of cybersecurity, the spotlight often shines on the dramatic breach or the sophisticated attack. But you know the truth: true resilience isn't about the heroics during a crisis, but the countless hours of unsung, diligent work that happens long before an incident ever escalates. This webinar offers an inside look at the often-overlooked, critical efforts of defensive cybersecurity professionals. Join seasoned Blue Teamers Kev Breen and Kevin Marriott from the Immersive Container 7 research team, plus Natalie George from BT Group, as they pull back the curtain on the quiet dedication and meticulous processes that underpin a truly robust defense based on real-world experiences. This session will highlight the daily real work that builds an unshakeable security posture. You’ll gain valuable insights into: The Unseen Foundations of Incident Response: Understand how the continuous, often repetitive, work of tuning, hardening, and practicing directly translates into a calm, effective, and decisive response when a real-world crisis unfolds. Transforming "Boring" into Bulletproof: Discover how the disciplined execution of seemingly mundane tasks – like log analysis, alert triage, and play runbooks – is the true differentiator between a team that panics and one that performs under pressure. Cultivating a Culture of Proactive Defense: Learn actionable strategies for embedding the "unseen work" mentality within your SOC, fostering a team that embraces continuous improvement, hones their skills through constant practice, and thrives on the quiet satisfaction of preventing crises before they start. This is your opportunity to hear hot takes on blue team efforts to build the bedrock of an organization's cyber resilience. Don't let your team be defined by what goes wrong; empower them with the foresight, training, and robust cyber readiness. Being truly ready isn't a stroke of luck. It's the direct result of the work no one sees.Operational CTI: Creating a Proof of Concept
# Recorded on 30th July 2025 Creating proof of concepts (PoC) isn’t always straightforward — it requires a deep understanding of both the target system and the underlying vulnerability. In this session, we’ll walk through how Immersive's Cyber Threat Intelligence (CTI) team move from identifying a vulnerability to developing a working PoC used in offensive lab environments. Join us to explore the tools, thought process, and technical steps that turn raw intelligence into actionable outcomes for detection, validation, and defence.` This is a live session and there will be opportunities to ask questions to Immersive CTI experts.Operational CTI: How Immersive Builds Labs for Real-World Threat Preparedness

Watch the recording from this event here ⬇️ Many organizations overlook vulnerabilities and attack campaigns that don’t directly impact them. While this makes sense for risk prioritization, studying these threats can reveal valuable insights that improve your defensive posture and technical skills. In this webinar, we’ll take you through a technical analysis of a recent malicious campaign and explore how analyzing adversary techniques — even those that haven’t targeted your organization — can uncover hidden gaps in your security strategy and enhance your ability to detect and mitigate future threats. Key Takeaways Threat Awareness Beyond Your Scope – Understanding attack campaigns that don’t directly affect your organization can still provide critical insights into evolving threat landscapes. Improving Defensive Posture – Learning from other attacks helps identify weaknesses in your own security strategy before they become exploited. Expanding Technical Knowledge – Deep-diving into attack techniques and vulnerabilities sharpens your ability to detect and mitigate sophisticated threats. Proactive Security Mindset – Adopting a proactive rather than reactive approach can help organizations stay ahead of adversaries, even if they’re not immediate targets. Applying Lessons Practically – Insights from external threats can shape better incident response plans, detection rules, and security skills.Decoding the May Retail Cyber Onslaught
Join us for a pre-recorded fireside chat between Immersive's VP Cyber MaxVetter and Director, Cyber Threat Research KevBreen, as we delve into the recent sophisticated cyberattacks that shook major UK brands like Marks & Spencer, Co-Op, and Harrods as events are still unfolding. This session will expose the inner workings of ransomware cartels like DragonForce, which operates a "Ransomware-as-a-Service" model, and their affiliates, such as the English-speaking Scattered Spider group, notorious for their highly effective social engineering tactics. We explore how these criminals exploit human vulnerabilities to bypass robust security, gain network access, exfiltrate data, and deploy ransomware, leading to significant financial losses and reputational damage. Discover the evolving threat landscape, the impact on businesses, and crucial lessons for building robust technical defenses coupled with continuous employee training and incident response plans. While this is a pre-recorded event from our Bristol community meetup, events and impacts are still unfolding, so post your question for MaxVetter and KevBreen to answer in the comments of this event! ⬇️
