Volker Rath and Shana Uhlmann share a practical approach to moving from compliance to resilience during major infrastructure expansion, outlining how to define minimum viable operations and reduce blast radius through disciplined architecture.
Critical infrastructure expansion is testing the limits of compliance-led cybersecurity. At Perth Airport, a multi-billion-dollar transformation spanning runways, terminals and integrated technology systems is driving a shift from regulatory obligation to operational resilience.
In this session, Volker Rath and Shana Uhlmann outline how to define minimum viable operations, prioritize recovery over perfection and invest where it materially reduces blast radius. While frameworks like the SOCI Act have lifted board visibility, they argue that resilience depends on disciplined architecture, clear system boundaries and pragmatic, risk-based decision-making. As IT, OT and AI-driven systems converge, the focus must move from reporting and prevention alone to graceful degradation and rapid return to service.
In this insightful session, Rath and Uhlmann will discuss:
- Defining minimum viable operations and planning for graceful degradation;
- Designing composable architectures that reduce hidden dependencies and blast radius;
- Prioritizing security investments that drive operational impact, not just compliance.
