How do you make sure your favorite cereal is always on the shelves when a cyber disaster strikes? In this episode, hosts Tim Peacock and Alicja Cade sit down with Noah Korba, VP of Digital Core, Cybersecurity, and Enterprise Architecture at General Mills, to look under the hood of "Mills Collaborative Recovery"—their intensive, annual two-week drill that actually recovers 90% of their Google Cloud estate to test real-world cyber resilience.

⌨️ "Clicking and Clacking" vs. Talking: Why General Mills ditched traditional tabletop discussions to actually run hands-on, keyboard-driven recoveries of their entire cloud infrastructure.
🥣 Protecting the Cinnamon Toast Crunch: How the team mapped out their "Minimum Viable Business" to keep critical supply chain and manufacturing operations moving.
🔑 The IT vs. OT Reality: The unique challenge of recovering factory equipment, where software updates won't work without a physical key turned on the warehouse floor.
💼 To Board or Not to Board: Noah's take on whether involving the board of directors in active cyber exercises is a valuable use of their time.
