All too often, it’s only a matter of time before a business will suffer a cyber-attack. The potential impact of cybercrime requires that cybersecurity be viewed as a business risk, rather than a simple IT issue. Fundamentally, an organization’s reputation is on the line as a cyber-attack may impact business operations, financial integrity, and legal exposure to its customers and partners. In order to adequately address the risks from large and complex cybercrimes, it is critical that organizations develop a strong crisis management strategy.   From incident response, to forensic investigation, to litigation and regulatory response, EY Privacy and Cyber Response professionals from the EY Forensics team are available to assist organizations against the most challenging cyber-attacks.
