5 Stages of a Data Breach

One thing I’ve noticed over the last couple years is that there are 5 Stages of a Data Breach:

Denial: We do not believe these attacks breached our critical servers.

Anger: We want to make it clear that we take security seriously!

Bargaining: We’d like to offer our affected customers a credit monitoring service.

Depression: We wish we could have done things differently.

Acceptance: Well, it just shows that no one is safe from hackers.
