Establishing a data breach response plan before a problem occurs will help firms navigate the delicate issue of when they should inform those affected by a breach.
Businesses “should have an incident response/breach response plan in place where all the players are clearly defined, and where they could act quickly and efficiently to contain the harm...and to gather all the facts quickly and offer appropriate remediation services, whether it's credit monitoring or identify theft,” said Jon A. Neiditz, a partner with law firm Nelson Mullins Riley & Scarborough L.L.P. in Atlanta.
