Why Rapid Response is Critical for Cybersecurity Incidents
A cybersecurity incident is not just a technical problem; it’s a fast-moving crisis. The moment a breach is suspected or detected, an invisible clock starts ticking.

The urgency involved isn’t just a matter of best practice; it’s a fundamental necessity for mitigating harm.
Why You Absolutely Need an Incident Response Plan
