Crisis Response & Incident Command
Stabilize decisions. Validate signals. Control escalation.
Crisis Response & Incident Command is a high-tempo engagement designed to restore decision integrity during active incidents. We establish a war-room cadence, define escalation thresholds, and keep stakeholders aligned to validated information.
When the signal picture is unclear, we fuse inputs rapidly and assign confidence so leadership can act without guessing. Protective Intelligence
Activation
- Establish war-room cadence and communications control.
- Define decision authority, roles, and escalation thresholds.
- Stabilize facts: source, timestamp, confidence, and disposition.
- Synchronize legal, comms, security, and operational stakeholders.
- Produce a defensible record of decisions and action taken.
Common Triggers
- Credible threat activity or targeting signals.
- Data exposure or breach indicators with uncertain scope.
- High-risk events, travel disruption, or immediate protective concerns.
- Reputational incidents moving faster than internal alignment.
- Leadership forced to decide with incomplete or conflicting inputs.
When response reveals deeper structural exposure—unclear ownership, missing controls, or recurring failure patterns—the incident transitions into executive security oversight to prevent recurrence. FCSO
