The need for a robust cybersecurity and recovery team requires very little explanation, especially given how much of normal day-to-day business processes are moving online. Cybersecurity is not only about prevention but also about action when the time comes. Experts like those at National Tech Advisors are not only equipped to help firms make the right choices when it comes to cybersecurity service providers and deployments but also can assist in the development of a robust response and action plan in the event of a cybersecurity incident.
Dealing with such incidents often involves a two-pronged approach. This includes a disaster recovery plan as well as a security recovery plan. The first involves ensuring continuity of business operations in the event of disruption whether from a cybersecurity incident or other event while the second is concerned with protecting data integrity and virtual assets in the event of a breach.
In the second phase of the disaster plan, relevant stakeholders work to keep lines of communication open between all relevant channels while the second phase of a cybersecurity breach often involves collecting data and evidence but with minimal public communication about this effort. The third phase of each action plan involves the recovery of normal service operations, albeit with some changes. These could include the deployment of new technologies or even wholesale changes to the way data is handled on the backend.
The last phase involves the ongoing efforts by the company and their partners like National Tech Advisors to make sure that the most up-to-date software and methodologies are practices to prevent a future event as much as possible. Using their industry-wide expertise as well as their knowledge of best practices and cutting-edge technology, internal teams, and external experts can work together to make sure that data and operations suffer minimal setbacks should something go wrong.
