BRIDGING FORCES - How to disrupt a cybercrime syndicate with public-private cooperation.


In this session, Maximilian will walk through a real-world investigation into the GXC team, showing how a coordinated approach to detection, analysis, and response ultimately led to their arrest. Beyond the story itself, the talk will break down the practical solutions that enabled each step of the investigation and explain how organisations can apply the same principles in their own environments.

Rather than introducing “just another tool” for the tech stack, the session focuses on how security capabilities must integrate into existing processes, teams, and decision-making to deliver real outcomes. Attendees will leave with a clear understanding of what actually makes investigations successful — and how to turn technology into measurable impact, not shelfware.
