I've been saying for ages we need to spend more money on IT and modernize. I have several media inquiries wanting to know if our products are still safe to use. Ahhhh. . . . They are paying you to deal with the technical stuff, and they want to hear about how the events will affect them. For example, marketing people want something they can use to explain the event to customers and the media.
Accounting probably wants to know what it's going to cost.
The legal department wants to know about liability and other law-related matters. Well, this morning at 3 a.m. I received a call from Bob, who is currently in Europe. He was trying to access our Website to show a customer a product, but he found that our Website had been defaced. What this means is that someone broke into our Web server, deleted all the Website-related data and placed a message boasting of their successful attack on us. My first priority was getting the site back online so that Bob could provide the customer with the needed data.
