It's not a matter of "if an incident occurs"; it's a matter of "when an incident occurs."

Can you believe that between 73 and 77 percent of businesses have no plan for how they will do incident response? Almost eight in ten small business owners (79 percent) do not have a plan for incident response to limit the effects of a data security event. Is it any wonder that when an incident does occur, people run around as if their hair were on fire. It doesn't have to be that way.

This presentation will be an introduction to the concepts in Incident Response. It will cover the topics of:

Incident Response Process and Procedures
Lessons from The Military
The Six Stages of Incident Response
Types of Security Incidents
The Cyber Kill Chain Stages
Incident Types and Recommended Actions
Incident Response Tools
After this presentation, you will be armed with the basics of Incident Response and be able to create a plan for how to handle the inevitable incident. If nothing else, you won't have to stock up on fire-retardant hair spray.
