Stephan Van Dyck

I am a cyber architect and incident responder by trade, chaos manager by necessity, and coffee addict by choice. Based in Belgium, he’s one of the co-founders of Resilix, where I help organizations stay cool during digital fires — from ransomware to insider threats and everything in between.

Over the years, I have seen my fair share of breaches, panic rooms, and “uh-oh” moments. I thrive in high-pressure situations where quick thinking, clear communication, and just a touch of black humor go a long way. Whether it’s containing an active attack or helping a team rebuild after the dust settles, I am all about turning messes into meaningful lessons.

Victim of your own cyberattack: A story from the trenches.
Hendrik Noben, Stephan Van Dyck

Administrators are meant to take care of your systems but what happens when they go rogue?

In this gripping incident response case study, we take you behind the scenes of a real-world insider threat that targeted internal systems. What began as suspicious access patterns on the network led to the uncovering of a calculated and deeply damaging betrayal from within.

The threat eventually became victim of his own attack.
