What are best practices for handling a data security incident? Every phase of a data security incident requires thoughtful and measured action – from discovery, to investigation, to post-investigation compliance. Even planning for an incident before it happens is important to lay the groundwork for the most effective response.
Foley Hoag partners Chris Hart and Veronica Jennings talk through best practices in responding to, investigating, and complying with your legal obligations arising out of a data security incident.
Topics include:
What constitutes a “breach” that creates compliance obligations
Best practices in planning for incident response
The most important things to do upon discovery of an incident
Tips, and pitfalls, in breach investigations
Communicating with law enforcement
Compliance obligations
