Planning

Anticipate challenges, amplify effectiveness
and streamline decision-making processes.

Start with an intelligent plan.

When a breach occurs, a well-planned response is a necessity. After all, every moment counts when navigating the fire drill that occurs during a serious attack on your network.

Verizon’s Incident Response Planning helps you develop the detection technologies, systems and handling processes you need when responding to an event. Our visibility across our global network allows us to develop strategic and tactical cyber intelligence few can match.

And by analyzing daily security events at our Threat Research Advisory Center, we help you develop the right processes and protocols to handle any incident. 

What is Incident Response Planning?

Our Incident Response Planning provides a systematic approach to response readiness and effective decision-making in the event of a cyber incident or breach, based on your unique circumstances. Our methods enable you to better facilitate incident response coordination, efficiently challenge assumptions and identify areas of continuous improvement.

How does Incident Response Planning work?

Our Incident Response Planning begins with an assessment of your existing incident response plans and capabilities, along with interviews with key leaders and stakeholders. We can also test your incident response plans through a variety of services, such as executive or technical table top exercises and red/blue/purple team simulations to identify critical gaps and recommend improvements to your incident response capabilities and playbooks.
