Cyber Communications Preparedness

Communications Preparedness

In today’s cybersecurity environment, it is not a question of if, but when, organizations experience a cybersecurity incident. By planning for a cybersecurity crisis in advance, companies can be confident that they will be able to swiftly and decisively respond to any emerging crisis situation and, in the process, protect stakeholder relationships, mitigate legal risk, and reduce short- and long-term business impact.

At FTI, we take a holistic approach to cybersecurity crisis preparedness, combining technical incident response, business continuity and disaster recovery, and crisis communications plans into a single, comprehensive Cybersecurity Crisis Management Program designed to position our clients to respond to a cybersecurity incident as soon as it occurs. Between the identification of our clients’ areas of strength and opportunity, the development of robust tools to support an efficient and effective incident response, and the facilitation of realistic tabletop exercises and simulations, FTI’s multi-faceted and robust cybersecurity crisis preparedness process equips our clients to successfully navigate even the most complex of cybersecurity incidents and emerge stronger on the other side.
