Creating a Breach Response Plan

by Rebecca Herold

A best practice is to prevent a privacy incident from occurring in the first place. Do this by first identifying current privacy exposures and second by prioritizing how to address them. However, when a privacy incident occurs, resolve the issues as quickly as possible by following your established incident response procedures and then analyzing the incident. Make necessary changes and then institute policies and procedures to prevent recurrences of the same type of incident. Most importantly, train yourself, your team, your organization, and anyone else involved with handling your PII to ensure they understand the importance of privacy.
