Your Company/Organization is on the Verge of a Cyber Crisis.
This is the guiding assumption every organization must live by, based on a realistic snapshot of today’s world. By the time you finish reading these lines, three organizations around the world will have experienced a crushing cyber event. With this in mind, no wonder intelligence agencies have crowned cyber threats as the most dangerous of all.
It is now up to you to decide the state under which the upcoming cyber-attack will find you. In the current cybernetic reality, those who wisely prepare in advance for the impending cyber crisis – which will come – will find minimal damage and effect, both on ongoing, daily activity, and future operations. Based on this very principle, at the center of which lies a unique method for organizational readiness for cyber crises, we founded Code Blue.
What Dangers Lurk You and Your Organization Behind the Doors of the Next Cyber Attack?
A cyber-attack has the potential to severely harm – temporarily or permanently – the key capabilities of any organization. Its damages leave the organization, as well as its leaders, vulnerable and exposed to lawsuits.
This, along with perhaps the most serious of all, is the damage to the functional continuity, the organizational image and reputation, all from which recovery is not a certainty.
Unlike companies that usually act only when a cyber crisis is in its peak, Code Blue specializes in learning and preparing organizations for such crises. At the foundation of the unique method we have developed – the Gold Standard – is a series of actionable steps that should and can be taken today to ensure better organizational readiness for cyber crises. This way, your organization could return to its operational routine as soon as possible while dealing with a cyber crisis.
Already Facing a Cyber-Attack?
Our approach is centered around the organization’s ability to continue operations during crises.
A dedicated operational team will be assigned to address and respond to your event in all its aspects as it unfolds: putting technology and service back on track, legalities and media policy, negotiations and operations, ongoing risk management and assessment, privacy matters and communicating with regulators.
Even once the crisis has been contained, your organization will have our full support in post-event recovery, disseminating lessons learned and optimizing preparations for future incidents.
This is the vision Code Blue stands for, along with the following skills and capabilities aggregated in years of professional experience: a 360-degree crisis management lifecycle of readiness, response, and recovery- early preparations by executing and implementing a customized plan, real-time support and securing the event while assessing causes and making preparation adjustments for future events.
Code Blue’s client base consists of state, public and business sectors, both locally and globally, and can best attest to the effective results of the company’s unique vigorous and practical approach to tackling a cyber crisis.
