PRE- & POST-BREACH SERVICE
Managing risk, liability and litigation associated with a data breach or cybersecurity/privacy incident has never been more important than now due to reputational harm and financial impacts to your company.
Yarbrough Blackstone and its team of data privacy, technology and cybersecurity experts serve in an outsourced counsel capacity providing industry wide knowledge of best practices concerning pro-active pre-breach transactional and post-breach incident response investigative services, including the following:
Cyber Risk Assessment:
The risk assessment will be mapped to the most recent version of the NIST SP 800-53, SP 800-171 or ISO 27002, and will identify the purpose of the applicable controls, identify controls that are not enabled, and provide guidance for implementing the applicable controls.
Incident Response Planning:
The incident response plan (IRP) will be mapped to the most recent version of the NIST 800-61, and will identify the phase of response to a data security incident, identify the internal and external responders, provide guidance on the response to different types of incidents involving different types of data, and provide guidance on navigating applicable notification laws and regulations.
Table-Top Exercises:
Mock data breach exercises are conducted in a table-top manner onsite for two to five hours depending on the client’s desired scope. The exercise is structured to present both digital and physical threat scenarios and escalations to allow business decision makers to problem solve and manage the crisis issues depicted.
