Taps, Timepieces, and Worst-Case Scenarios
While you sample Fadó's craft beer and classic Irish fare, we're putting the industry's toughest challenges under the microscope. You'll witness a live ransomware simulation that shows exactly how a system is compromised—and more importantly, how Druva restores order. We'll demonstrate how our SaaS platform guarantees fast, reliable recovery with no hardware, no complexity, and zero surprises. It's likely the only time you'll actually enjoy watching a security breach unfold.
The rewards for resilience don't end at the last round. To commemorate the evening, every attendee will select a custom Shinola watch on us. Simply choose your favorite style during the event, and we will have it delivered to you—a timeless reminder that while your recovery should be instant, your style is permanent.
Come for the pints, stay for the peace of mind, and leave with a new favorite timepiece on the way.
