In the live webinar, Ewing and Clancy will share their experiences from recent consulting engagements. They will offer advice on how to contain the impact of a breach, resolve an incident, and get back to business as fast as possible. Attendees will learn:

  • Proper taxonomy for writing an incident response plan
  • Recommendations for developing and building in cyber exercises
  • How to use a knowledge management system to keep plans agile
  • How to avoid scope creep and identify likely scenarios to test

According to a new survey by the Ponemon Institute, "What CISOs Worry About in 2018," more than two-thirds of CISOs believe they'll face a cyber security attack this year. 

"It's an oft-repeated saying in the security world, but it still holds true that it isn't a question of if you'll experience an incident, but when," notes Clancy. "And when you're dealing with a cyber attack or data breach, you'll be much better off with a well-prepared staff and a battle-tested plan."

"A mature incident response plan keeps everyone on the same page," adds Ewing. "Having a documented, tested process brings order to chaotic situations and keeps everyone focused on solving the most pressing issues."
