Most companies don’t take cyber risk seriously until it’s too late. This is Wake Up, the podcast from Veeam that pulls back the curtain on what really happens when crisis strikes. Told through the voices of those who’ve lived it, these are the human stories behind the attacks — the 3 a.m. wake-up call every CISO knows too well, the flashing phone, the sinking feeling, the fear and fatigue that set in long before dawn, and the leadership it takes to navigate the fallout.
We’re going beyond the ransomware and phishing to explore the people, culture, and real-world decisions that define how organizations respond when it counts.
Wake Up! is a call to every CISO and their C-suite peers to understand what true readiness means and to build cultures of resilience before crisis hits. Because when the next breach comes, your organization isn’t the one sleepwalking into the headlines.
