These guidelines were originally presented at the EUNIS24 Congress in Athens. At the request of EUNIS  Harald Gilch and his team at HIS-HE in Germany have produced an updated English version tailored for the Information Security SIG (InfoSec).

This comprehensive guide outlines best practices for handling cyberattacks during three critical phases:

  1. Detection phase – Recognizing and identifying the attack.
  2. Reaction phase – Responding effectively to mitigate the impact.
  3. Normalization phase – Restoring operations and learning from the incident.

The publication, Guidelines on Crisis Management After Cyber Attacks,” is now available for download.
