12:20 Security Breach Response Planning - Live Response to Cyberattacks Group Think Tank

Share good practice taken from lessons learned in managing cyber-attacks to create a step by step response

plan for managing the ‘security breach chain’. Proven tips on how to respond to a security breach. Attendees rotate around 4 Roundtables, to input notes on each phase of a security response plan. As attacks become ever more advanced and ubiquitous, organisations need to ensure that they are prepared to deal with the step by step management of an attack. While preventing all security breaches might be impossible, preparing a fully-documented and tested response plan for a security breach is now a must. The Think Tank provides the opportunity for professionals and executives from across functions on how to examine a breach in-depth.

• Roundtable 1: Detection / Discovery –What is the most effective way to test and monitor in preparation for potential cyber attacks? • How to identify the security threat origin • Costings?

• Roundtable 2: Incident Management, Investigation & Escalation – What is the scope, source, magnitude & management response? Who should be involved in the incident investigation? How can we ensure that incident response plans are robust and effective?

• Roundtable 3: Containment – How can we lessen the severity of the incident? What data and information should be collected and analysed to enable the development of mitigation strategies? At what stage should customers be informed? Active defense: is it right to launch a counter-attack to try to at least identify the source if not stop it?

• Roundtable 4: Recovery & Post Response - What actions can minimize potential future attacks? What processes should organisations follow in the aftermath of a breach in order to best learn from the incident?
