Imagine getting that call you’ve ALWAYS DREADED – Your company is under attack. Ransomware has locked down your systems and cybercriminals are demanding a ransom. In those first frantic moments, what do you do? All those conversations about resilience and data recovery are suddenly real.
To kick off 2026, The STEMINISTS brings you an unfiltered, firsthand account of a ransomware attack from Katherine Schwarzauer, Senior Windows Server Engineer at the Port of Seattle. She lived through the chaos:- every second, every decision, every lesson learned. She takes us deep into the forensic reality of a major cyber-attack at a major international airport.
If you’ve ever wondered what happens after the worst-case scenario hits, this is your chance to learn from someone who’s been there. But make sure you stick around for part two of this conversation when we hear what happens next. When Katherine and her team had to rebuild nearly everything, from storage to backups to security controls and all the lessons in-between that allowed them to build back stronger.
As always, make sure you tune in weekly and to hit follow for more STEMINIST conversations.
