This checklist outlines the steps a company should take in response to a cyber incident. It includes determining if the incident warrants escalation, documenting decisions, mitigating any ongoing compromise, engaging legal counsel, activating an incident response plan, notifying relevant parties such as insurers and business partners, investigating the scope of data compromised, assessing legal obligations, determining if law enforcement or public notification is required, and implementing measures to prevent future breaches. The checklist emphasizes having an incident response plan in place before a breach occurs to facilitate a coordinated response.
