Webinar: Surviving the Audit – Live Roundtable + Q&A
In 2026, the pressure is coming from multiple angles: CSRB, NIS2, DORA, and insurers who now want to see evidence, not assurances. The uncomfortable truth is that many organisations still cannot prove recoverability end to end, especially under a ransomware or insider scenario. This live roundtable brings together Covenco and Veeam to focus on the questions you are likely to face and the practical steps that make your recovery position defensible. You can watch live from your desk and take part in the Q&A.
OVERVIEW
Covenco and Veeam are coming together for this focused 45-60 minute lunch and learn, designed for UK IT, security and compliance leaders in mid-market and enterprise organisations who are preparing for more rigorous scrutiny from regulators, customers and insurers.
Attendees will gain experience and knowledge from this session:
What scrutiny will focus on in 2026
Where CSRB, NIS2 and DORA are pushing organisations, and the areas auditors tend to test first.
What evidence stands up
What auditors and insurers actually ask for when they assess recoverability, and how to avoid gaps in the evidence trail.
Immutable backup that protects recovery
What ‘immutable’ needs to mean when ransomware targets backup infrastructure and admin credentials, not just production systems.
How to prove recoverability with verified recovery workflows
How to move from occasional restore tests to repeatable verification and reporting you can use in audits, insurer conversations, and board updates.
