Responding to Cyber Threats and Breaches

Preparation is one of the best defences against cybercriminals, but it is also important to know how your business will respond in the case of a cyber attack.

Businesses of all sizes should have a cyber security incident response plan (CSIRP) and this module will provide you with the knowledge and skills to create one. You will learn the five key steps of a CSIRP: prepare, detect, contain, recover and report, learn and improve.

You will also learn how to test and evaluate your CSIRP via an incident response exercise and regularly update it to ensure it protects your business into the future. An effective CSIRP can help you to recover quickly, so you can get right back to business.
