Life after the Breach: A Survivor's Guide
summary
Practical checklist: inventory assets, prioritize patching after finding scanners that miss detections, and add compensating controls; run tabletop muscle memory exercises limited to two hours with 3–4 injects, start small and escalate to full comms and regulator scenarios; preselect crisis comms vendors and call‑center failovers (one breach required hiring 2,600 French speakers), build second/third tier leaders who can step in, preserve privileged communications by structuring incident responders through counsel, and expect long tail costs (one incident erased about $6 billion in market value).
