Incident and Breach Management That Keeps You in Control

Incident and breach management is not about reacting—it’s about being ready. When a data breach or security incident strikes, your organization’s response speed and coordination will determine the outcome.

Responsum gives your privacy team a powerful advantage. With ENISA-aligned assessments, real-time data visibility, and streamlined collaboration, your team can respond swiftly and decisively—without the chaos.

Why Incident and Breach Management Deserves Your Focus

Delayed Responses Come at a Cost

Every minute matters during a breach. Without the right tools, your team may scramble to collect information, assign responsibilities, and notify the right stakeholders. This delay can lead to reputational damage, regulatory fines, and even customer churn.

Fortunately, Responsum gives you a head start. It connects key data across your systems, helping you understand what happened—and what to do next—in real time.

Regulations Require Structure

Data protection authorities expect a coordinated and documented response. Responsum supports this by integrating the ENISA breach severity methodology. As a result, your team can classify incidents confidently and meet GDPR reporting obligations with ease.

You don’t have to guess what to do next. Responsum guides your response step by step.

Smart Features for Incident and Breach Management

See What Matters—Instantly

When an incident occurs, clarity is critical. Responsum pulls in relevant data from across your infrastructure. You’ll know which systems were affected, what kind of data was involved, and how that data supports your business processes.

This immediate insight helps your team assess the situation without delays or guesswork.

Assess Breach Severity with Confidence

To evaluate impact, Responsum uses a structured approach based on the ENISA framework. The system guides you through risk questions—like how many individuals were affected and whether sensitive data was exposed.

Because the process is standardized, your assessments are consistent and defensible.

Collaboration and Automation in Incident and Breach Management

Assign and Track Tasks Easily

Incident response requires teamwork. Often, privacy professionals need input from IT, HR, or Legal. Responsum makes this easier by allowing you to delegate tasks directly within the platform. With automated reminders and progress tracking, you won’t lose time chasing updates.

This way, your whole team stays aligned and informed.

All Information in One Platform

Instead of jumping between tools, everything you need is connected in Responsum. Incidents can be linked to your RoPA, vendor assessments, or even DSRs. That gives you context at a glance—and ensures a consistent response.

Importantly, all actions are logged, so you’ll have a complete audit trail when needed.

Responsum’s interface connects the dots between people, processes, and data. You’ll know who’s doing what, where the risk lies, and how to act fast. Plus, version history and documentation keep you prepared for audits or investigations.

Security incidents and data breaches are inevitable—but being unprepared is not. Responsum’s incident and breach management module gives you a clear path forward, even when the pressure is on.

With guided assessments, automated workflows, and a single source of truth, you’ll stay ahead of both the incident and the audit.
