About the Session
In this talk, Carlos Eduardo M. Moreira, Supervisor of Infrastructure, Technology, and Information Security at the Court of Accounts of the State of Rio Grande do Sul (TCE-RS), highlights the More Resilient IT Project, an initiative that consolidated actions to strengthen the continuity and security of IT services in the face of high-impact events, such as the 2024 flood and the 2022 ransomware attack. With structural improvements in physical infrastructure, contingency practices, adoption of Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA), Extended Asset Protection, and a Security Operations Center (SOC), the project raised the institution’s technological maturity, reduced vulnerabilities, and improved crisis response. By integrating climate resilience and cybersecurity, the case offers a concrete and replicable model for recovery and support of critical operations, providing practical lessons for public and private organizations seeking greater robustness against digital threats and extreme events.
