Cyber Incident Response Plans: Planning for the Inevitable

This webinar training analyzes critical components of a Cyber Incident Response Plan and provides recommendations on how to prepare all staff for the inevitable situations. From internal considerations to your external solution providers, get a realistic view of how a cyber-attack can quickly spiral a typical day into complete chaos and cause significant losses without preparation.

Attendees will receive a Cyber Incident Response Plan checklist to help their Incident Response Team analyze or develop a Plan.

Why Should You Attend:

A poor response is often more damaging than the cyber-attack itself. According to recent reports, cyber-attacks cost the average American business $15.4 million per year, double the global average of $7.7 million. Breaking this down further, that could be as much as $100,000 per hour. Add the fact that 60% of small businesses that suffer a breach go out of business within 6 months due to financial loss reinforces why Cyber Incident Response Plans are critical in today’s business environment.

Cyber-attacks and breaches dominate the media and are a significant focus of the government. Businesses and financial institutions are faced with the grim reality that a cyber-attack is inevitable. It’s not a matter of if an attack will occur, only when. Incident Response Plans today have to consider a myriad of possible attack methods to ensure Plans appropriately mitigate unique threats.
