A security plan on paper is just a liability waiting to be exposed. In Video 6, we tackle the CISO's ultimate test: Incident Management. Discover the critical differences between an IRP, BCP, and DRP, why technicians fail during a crisis, and how top-tier executives maintain control, legally protect the company, and manage the boardroom narrative during a massive cyber breach.
In this video, we cover:
• The Crisis Mindset: Why technicians pull cables while executives pull the incident playbook.
• The Holy Trinity of Chaos: Distinctly separating Incident Response (stopping the bleeding), Business Continuity (keeping revenue flowing), and Disaster Recovery (rebuilding the tech).
• Out-of-Band Communications: The most common failure point during ransomware attacks.
• The Tabletop Exercise: Why you must test your C-suite in peacetime to survive wartime.
• Post-Incident Review: How to turn a multi-million dollar breach into a strategic budget justification.
Passing the exam is just the gate. Dominating the CISO chair is the goal. I am Sec Guy, and the lab is officially open. Stay safe, stay secure.
