Why does having an incident response plan help better protect your organization?

Winston Churchill once said, “He who fails to plan is planning to fail.” Organizations across industry groups and size have been victims of cyberattacks. An incident response plan helps define types of incidents that can impact a business; roles and responsibilities of those involved in the response to the incident; communication protocols; and notification requirements. Having an organized approach and documented plan can significantly reduce the time and overall cost it takes for an organization to react to and recover from an incident.

What is Incident Response?

A robust incident response program helps businesses identify, prioritize, contain, and eradicate cyberattacks. Today, organizations face cybersecurity challenges that are more frequent, severe, and complex. These incidents require the expertise and scale of dedicated specialists to provide a swift and effective response.
