Episode 31 - Data Incidents And Breaches: What Mid-Sized Companies Do When One Hits
Data incidents arise regularly for businesses. The perpetrators range from sophisticated scoundrels seeking a quick ransom payment, to foreign governments conducting industrial espionage, to thieves seeking inside information, to distant hackers seeking personal data to sell on the dark web. When an incident arises, companies turn to legal counsel as part of the response team. In this podcast, Bob Dibert, a Frost Brown Todd attorney with 30 years’ experience and a veteran of data incidents, discusses how incidents arise and how they’re handled.
There’s a three-step approach when an incident arises:
1. Contain: Immediately aim to stop further leakage and prevent additional harm from arising.
2. Counsel and Plan: Promptly analyze the scope and nature of the incident, what needs to be done to address it both immediately and longer term.
3. Remediate: Solve the problems, remedy the damage, notify those affected if required.
