The term "data breach response" signifies the actions taken to address unauthorized access to sensitive information in a cybersecurity strategy. It involves a planned approach to detect, contain, and remediate the breach, as well as notify affected parties and comply with legal requirements. An effective response minimizes damage, protects affected individuals, and helps restore trust. Organizations often develop incident response plans that outline specific steps, roles, and communication strategies to manage crises effectively and reduce the risk of future breaches.
