FTI Breakfast Series Part 2: Taking a Holistic Approach to a Cybersecurity Breach: Investigation, Analysis, Management and Lessons Learned

 

More than 16 billion records, including credit card and other sensitive personal data, have been compromised since 2019 with breach frequency continuing to rise. The impact of a cyber incident can be multi-faceted: legal and regulatory ramifications around the world, financial loss, reputational damage among internal and external stakeholders, and other types of economic or social disadvantage. Given these risks, effective breach response is an imperative to mitigate additional adverse impacts.

 

In this session, speakers with global and Asian expertise will shed a light on:

• What a strategic approach to incident response and management looks like

• How to determine the extent of a breach to support applicable requirements

• Tailored multi-stakeholder engagement strategy, including scenario planning, timely communications and legal notification

• Best practices for minimizing the effects of a data breach and its subsequent impact

• Internalizing the lessons learned

 

Speakers: FTI Consulting

  • Eva Kwok, Senior Managing Director & Head of Cybersecurity

  • Sandeep Jadav, Senior Managing Director and Asia Lead, Technology

  • Meredith Griffanti, Senior Managing Director and Global Head of Cybersecurity & Data Privacy Communications, Strategic Communications
