Despite best efforts, security breaches can still occur. An effective response plan should include:
Incident Response Plan: A predefined set of procedures to follow in the event of a security breach. Quick Identification: Rapidly identifying the breach to minimize damage. Containment: Isolating affected systems to prevent the spread of the breach. Eradication: Removing the cause of the breach and restoring affected systems. Recovery: Bringing systems back to normal operation as quickly as possible. Post-Incident Review: Analyzing the breach to improve future security measures.
