IS THIS FOR YOU
Written for Australian SMB owners, office managers, and accidental incident responders
You'll get value from this if
- A staff member just told you "something is wrong" and you do not know the next move
- You want a one-page reference your business can use without an IT person on site
- You want to know what a proper incident response looks like beyond the first hour
This is not
- A substitute for a documented incident response plan
- Legal advice on Notifiable Data Breach obligations (engage a privacy lawyer)
- A substitute for cyber insurance and a DFIR specialist
