We’re pleased to present the launch of “Decrypted,” a podcast hosted by Skadden’s Cybersecurity and Data Privacy Practice. Each episode will track how cyber, privacy and AI risks show up in real life — inside incident response calls, board discussions, regulator interactions and litigation strategies.

In our inaugural episode, William Ridgway and David Simon walk through a realistic triple-extortion ransomware incident scenario, focusing on the critical first 72 hours after a ransomware attack. From escalation and documentation to regulatory notifications and ransom decisions, they break down how early actions shape everything that follows.

Whether you’re a legal professional, in-house counsel or just someone who is interested in how cyber and privacy risks play out in practice, “Decrypted” is your go-to resource for scenario-based discussions, regulatory and enforcement deep dives, and interviews with experienced practitioners and thought leaders.
