Crisis Response & Management

Navigate any crisis with confidence

Get back to business as usual with a crisis management platform that gives your teams a faster path to remediation.

Who’s managing your crisis response?

Your organization’s ability to navigate a cyber crisis goes far beyond mitigating and responding to technical risks. Effective crisis management means having an in-house team that deeply understands the relationship between business and technical risk so you can create an action plan that’s capable of navigating the complexities of a crisis, including:

Meeting key
stakeholders

How will you keep stakeholders, the board of directors, legal entities, regulatory bodies, and insurers in the loop during a crisis?

Going beyond simple
public relations

Is your crisis management team hyper focused on public relations? An effective response must prioritize the business, its people, and its processes.

Restoring critical business functions

How quickly can your crisis management team restore critical business functionality? And does your team have a deep understanding of the business?

Bring crisis management & incident response together

Ensure your crisis management and incident response teams are aligned towards the same goals: restoring the business and its critical systems. ShadowHQ gives your organization a single solution for accessing the business continuity plan, engaging your crisis management team, and organizing your remediation efforts.

  • Improve communications with all stakeholders by sharing the most up to date information about a crisis as it evolves.
  • Bridge the gap between operations, IT, and other departments by ensuring everyone is following the same plan.
  • Simplify incident response, crisis management, business continuity planning, and compliance with one powerful platform.
