The Event
 

Location: Limerick Chamber Boardroom

Date: Thursday, 29 October 2026

Time: 12:30 PM–2:00 PM

Through a panel discussion, we’ll explore:

• Before an incident: how security practices influence employee behaviour, and how organisations can reduce friction while encouraging a culture of openness and accountability.
• During an incident: how leaders can balance urgency with clear decision-making, realistic expectations and effective internal communication.
• After an incident: how organisations can learn from an incident, rebuild trust and strengthen resilience without creating a culture of blame.

Panel speakers:

• Paul Delahunty, CISO, Stryve
• Pat Ryan, former Superintendent and previous Head of the Garda Cyber Crime Bureau, Board Advisor
• Eimear Lane, Director, Brown & Brown Cyber Insurance

The session will offer practical perspectives on the human side of cyber resilience and provide an opportunity to learn from experienced voices across cybersecurity, cybercrime and cyber insurance.

We look forward to welcoming you for an informative and engaging session.
