Download and review our list of 'Top 5 Things to Get Right in a Cyber Incident Response Plan'

Five simple points to keep in mind for creating cyber incident response plans that actually work.

Before you do tear up your current incident response plan, take a look at the 5 simple points to consider and get right when creating a response plan. Why is this so important? Quite simply because the confusion and the pressure during a cyber-attack can overwhelm even the most seasoned professional. An effective, easy-to-follow plan can mean the difference between a successful outcome or a long-lasting damaging aftermath.

This workflow, taken from our NCSC-Certified Cyber Incident Planning and Response course, points out the key considerations for creating an effective cyber incident response plan.

Do note that the majority of cybersecurity standards such as ISO 27001, ISO 22301, PCI DSS recommend organisations to develop a Data Breach or Cyber Incident Response Plan.
