About Session

Technical Level: Intermediate

At the beginning of the Russian invasion in Ukraine, many critical systems that were expected to be priority targets have been moved… elsewhere. This session will analyse experience of migrating critical systems away ASAP under fire, based on experience in Ukrainian power grid, telcos, defence – ranging from simple lift-and-shift to massive re-engineering. More importantly, we will look at how these systems in their new states evolved over last 2-3 years, which important challenges had to be addressed and what to prepare for in critical situations like Ukrainian CNI operators had to face.
