An incident response plan is an organized approach to addressing the aftermath of a security breach, ransomware event or cyber-attack. Certain industries, like medical or financial institutions, require them.
But even if you’re not a big company, it’s best to have some idea of what you would do if a cyber-attack locked all your files or stole confidential information.
Things to consider when you’re planning:
- An immediate response plan if you are ransomed or breached.
- What to do when a laptop or other device is lost or stolen.
- What insurance coverage do you have for such incidents?
- An attorney who is prepared with an alert response for clients, employees, vendors and possibly even the media in case something happens.
- A data-recovery plan for restoring your network from backups.
That’s where we are here to help! Give us a call and we’ll be glad to help you put together a cyber-response plan so you’re brilliantly prepared instead of caught completely off guard!
