Cyberattacks are getting faster, smarter, and harder to spot. What worked for your security setup 18 months ago probably has gaps in it today — and the attackers know it.
On 18 June, Reformed IT is hosting a free half-day briefing at Broadway Cinema in Nottingham, in partnership with Huntress. It’s built specifically for IT managers and directors who want a clear-eyed look at what the threat landscape looks like right now — and what you can actually do about it.
What to Expect
Doors open at 9:00 AM with complimentary pastries and hot drinks. Sessions run through to midday, followed by a buffet lunch at the Mezz bar — a chance to network with other IT leaders from across the region before heading off.
2026 Threat Landscape: How Hackers Win, and How You Wreck Them
Sasha Roshan, Security Specialist at Huntress, opens the morning. Huntress runs a 24/7 SOC that monitors and responds to threats on behalf of thousands of businesses — Sasha brings that frontline perspective into this session with a deep dive into the specific threats dominating this year. Expect live demonstrations — not slides of statistics — covering:
- How M365 accounts are being compromised at scale
- Live MFA bypass demonstrations
- Off-the-shelf AI tools attackers are actively using
- What modern defences like EDR, ITDR and SIEM look like in practice
Inside the SOC: How Cyber Threats Are Detected and Stopped
A Huntress SOC Analyst takes the room through what their team actually sees day to day — the threats being escalated, the patterns that repeat, and how attacks are identified and stopped before they become headlines. This isn’t a theoretical overview; it’s a window into the work Huntress SOC analysts are doing right now on behalf of businesses like yours.
Modern Cyber Threats: What’s Changing and How to Respond
Joe Burns, CEO of Reformed IT and Certified Ethical Hacker, closes the sessions with a practical walkthrough of how attacks are evolving right now: the tactics that are actually working against businesses, the warning signs people miss, and what the Reformed IT team is responding to on the ground across the East Midlands.
Why This Matters Right Now
M365 compromise, MFA bypass, ransomware delivered through trusted vendors — these aren’t theoretical risks. They’re the attacks Reformed IT engineers are responding to across the East Midlands on a regular basis.
The businesses that get hit hardest aren’t always the ones who ignored security entirely. More often, it’s organisations that had something in place — just not enough of the right things, configured the right way. This briefing is designed to help you close that gap before someone else finds it.
