Consumer Remediation Services
In the wake of a data breach, every second counts for your organization and the impacted individuals. While navigating the complexities of the entire breach response process, your organization must also be able to quickly and effectively roll out a solution for the affected population, with little room for error.
While many organizations take factors like regulatory pressure, victim demographics and the likelihood of a lawsuit into consideration when developing a remediation plan, they oftentimes overlook the actual risk of harm to the affected population which can result in a short-sighted solution. After all, how effective can credit monitoring be at detecting signs of medical identity theft, criminal impersonation, payday loan fraud and the like?
Spare your organization the reputational, financial and legal consequences of an insufficient remediation strategy. Let Kroll help you pinpoint exactly who has been impacted and identify a set of cost-effective, comprehensive solutions that address the actual risks to the affected population based on the circumstances of your incident.
