Data breach

Quick response to a data breach prevents greater damage

A data breach or cyber incident can have serious consequences for your organization legally, financially, and reputationally. Therefore, acting quickly and effectively is crucial. BG.legal supports you at every step of the incident response process with a legal approach that works.

What we do for you in the event of a data breach

Our incident response service is focused on three pillars:

Legal assessment and reporting obligation

We immediately analyze the nature and impact of the breach. Is there a reporting obligation under the GDPR or the Network and Information Systems Security Act (Wbni)? We guide the reporting process to the Dutch Data Protection Authority and other competent authorities.

Communication and transparency

Clear and accurate communication is essential. We assist in informing affected parties (such as customers or partners) and help draft statements for regulators or the press. We also safeguard your legal position and reputation.

Damage limitation and follow-up actions

Together, we work to limit further damage and implement corrective measures. This includes adjusting processes, reviewing security measures, and evaluating existing contracts.

Prevention is better than cure

In addition to supporting acute incidents, we also offer preventive services, such as cybersecurity scans and GDPR compliance checks, to reduce risks in the future.
