Corporate information leak investigation / data breach
Corporate information leak investigation / data breach
If you notice or suspect that your business information is being leaked, there can be serious consequences, both financially and for your reputation. You may even face extortion, the sale of your data or its misuse for your own gain. It is therefore crucial to quickly identify and plug the leak to prevent further damage.
Some signs that may indicate a data breach:
- Customer and/or employee complaints about phishing emails
- Company data appearing online
- Notifications about unauthorized access to accounts within the organization
- Encryption of files (possibly by ransomware)
- Export of large amounts of data by a (departing) employee
What to do in the event of a data breach?
In the event of a data breach, you must make a (pre-)notification to the Data Protection Authority (AP) within 72 hours. If this is not done on time, you risk a fine. It is also important to consider:
- Who should be notified internally (CISO, legal department, management, IT team)
- How and when stakeholders (employees, customers, partners) should be informed
- Whether other organizations have also been victimized (e.g., through phishing campaigns)
- Any legal and financial liabilities
NFIR helps determine the cause of the data breach by conducting forensic investigations on laptops, phones, desktops, servers, mailboxes and other digital traces. Depending on the log data available, it may be possible to determine who is responsible. If the culprit is known, legal action can be taken, such as evidence seizure and recovery of company information unlawfully in possession.
