An effective Incident Response Plan can ensure swift incident containment and reduce operational impact. Latitude’s experts can help your organization become more resilient.
Cyber Defense: Preparation, Planning, and Personalized Response
The Critical Role of Incident Response Preparation
Cyber attacks are more widespread and impactful than ever before. When security controls are defeated, one element and one element alone makes the difference between a timely and methodical return to normal operations and a sustained outage and heavy losses—your skill and proficiency in responding to incidents.
Preparation is key. Just as a hurricane response plan should be developed when it’s 70 degrees and sunny, so too must cyber incident response plans be developed and rehearsed when all is running smoothly. Documentation of specific actions in the plan, training, and proficiency with the plan are critical.
From Strategic Planning to Tactical Response
Latitude performs critical interviews to understand your organization and operations and develop a strategic plan. Everything is customized to your organization—we never use a “one-size-fits-all” strategy.
An Incident Response Plan (IRP) outlines the overall strategy and framework for responding to cybersecurity incidents. It provides a comprehensive guide on how to prepare for, detect, contain, eradicate, and recover from security incidents.
An Incident Response Playbook is a more detailed, scenario-specific guide that provides step-by-step instructions for handling specific types of incidents. Playbooks are designed to operationalize the incident response plan by offering precise procedures for dealing with particular threats or attack vectors.
- How often should we test our incident response plan?
- How often should we update our incident response plans?
At a minimum, we recommend conducting an annual tabletop exercise to evaluate both the effectiveness of your incident response plan and your team’s familiarity with it.
Incident Response Plans should be reviewed and updated regularly to keep up with evolving threats. By partnering with Latitude, you’ll ensure your plan stays up-to-date, and your organization remains vigilant against new risks.
