Strengthening digital resilience across the Kingdom

The Dutch government is working to improve both digital and physical services in the Caribbean Netherlands, with cyber resilience as a key focus.

Webinar 3. Cyber crisis management in the Caribbean part of the Kingdom

This webinar focuses on the practical side of cyber crisis management: how to respond to a cyber incident, who takes the lead, and how to limit the damage when systems fail or information becomes inaccessible.

Webinar 4. Ransomware: Are you prepared?

Experts in ransomware reveal how cybercriminals operate and why organisations choose to negotiate. The session breaks down the 3 critical phases of attacks: forensic investigation, exploitation of vulnerabilities, and cooperation.

Webinar 5. Privacy & Security: protection of personal data

Experts guide you and your organisation on strengthening digital resilience within the close-knit communities of the Caribbean islands. They share insights from the Data Protection Authority of Bonaire, Sint Eustatius, and Saba (BES islands) and clarify why privacy is about much more than just following rules.

The webinars are available in multiple languages (Caribbean Cyber Resilience Programme for English / Caribisch Cyberprogramma for Dutch) / Programa sibernétiko karibense for Papiamentu) and can be watched on demand upon login or registration.
