If you experience a breach, follow these steps:

  1. Contain the breach – Disconnect affected systems and revoke compromised credentials.
  2. Investigate the incident – Identify how the attack happened.
  3. Notify stakeholders – Inform clients and regulatory bodies (if required).
  4. Remediate vulnerabilities – Fix security gaps to prevent future attacks.
