Building an incident response plan to match the current threat environment requires experience in technical security, cybersecurity law and privacy law. ZeroDay Law offers this expertise and extensive experience in incident response planning and management to address the non-technical consequences of a cybersecurity or privacy incident. With an understanding of potential legal issues, ZeroDay Law’s incident response planning helps clients—beyond the IT department—meet compliance requirements and avoid common pitfalls that can be expensive and time-consuming.

ZeroDay Law’s specialized table-top exercises simulate the important operational and practical steps of a mock security incident with a group of 10-12 people from your organization. Prior to the exercise, we study your operations and culture from a legal and operational perspective and confer with forensic experts to create a customized, realistic threat scenario that will best work with your current ad hoc or formal IR Plan and processes. Each table-top exercise provides a meaningful immersion into the roles each department would play (beyond the Legal Department and IT/IS), after which we provide concrete, actionable post-exercise action items and other recommendations for specific resources within your organization.

Significant financial, legal and reputational harm can occur following a cybersecurity incident for any organization in any industry. ZeroDay Law has experience working across all industries, and can help your organization understand its cyber risk and develop a robust incident response plan to mitigate threats beyond those of a technical nature.

ZeroDay Law conducts comprehensive cybersecurity liability risk assessments to determine (and minimize) cybersecurity-related liability exposure and develop compliance programs. After conducting a baseline analysis to identify, digest, and organize applicable regulatory, statutory, contractual and voluntary obligations, we select cyber and privacy standards and frameworks (including the NIST Cybersecurity Framework), then compare objective and subjective requirements against your existing cybersecurity and privacy program to identify gaps and recommend cybersecurity and privacy program components to improve your compliance programs.
