Minimising the Impact if a Breach Occurs

31 minutes

In this episode of InfoSec Insider – Talk Cyber, Jack Woods and George Ryan, both Consultants at URM, outline the steps organisations can take to ensure they are prepared in the event of a cyber breach and able to minimise the impact of a breach as much as possible. George and Jack leverage their extensive experience helping organisations strengthen their cyber and information security posture to discuss:

The importance of approaching cyber security breaches as a question of ‘when’ not ‘if’, and how to ensure your organisation is appropriately resilient

The documentation and procedures organisations should have in place, such as business continuity, disaster recovery, and communication plans, and how to test these plans’ effectiveness through exercising

When disconnecting your organisation’s environment, i.e., ‘pulling the plug’, is an appropriate response to an attack

Technical measures all organisations should have in place to mitigate the impact of a breach, such as segregation, backups, etc.
