SOC versus The Clock

by Mark Rowe

Location:Churchill War Rooms, central London

Start date:07/10/2025

End date:07/10/2025

Event Organiser:Espira, and Sophos

Espria, a UK managed services provider, is hosting “SOC versus The Clock,” an immersive simulation event with Sophos. You will tackle a simulated cyber-attack, to see the impact and costs unfold in real-time. Participants will be split into teams, to collaborate and approach problems from both a technical and financial perspective, to put their skills and knowledge of cyber defences to the test.

“The real cost of a cyberattack and its complexity are a whole business concern, rather than just the exclusive responsibility for the IT department. There is a real need to protect the business as a whole, rather than just the data held,” said Stephen Cook, Head of Sales at Espria.

“We wanted to share an experience that moves beyond passive theoretical presentations and puts leaders in the hot seat. In a cyberattack, every second counts and delays and indecision can cost companies dearly. Unless you’re in the room when it’s happening, it’s impossible to understand the pressure of protecting your business during a live cyberattack.

“By having IT and operational teams work in tandem, against the clock, we are aiming to impart a much deeper appreciation for the critical need for a unified security strategy. This event is about empowering organisations to make faster, more informed decisions to save their businesses.

“It’s time for business leaders to ask themselves the tough questions. Are you tested and ready for phishing attacks? Do you have the right protocols in place, are you actively scanning for vulnerabilities, and what is your MDR strategy? We believe this event is unmissable for IT and finance leaders, who must lead the charge together to build a more resilient, collaborative security posture for their business.”
