Crisis Preparedness & Security Leadership

Are you ready for
your first deepfake?

A healthcare company lost $499K on a single Zoom call. Every person on that call was AI-generated. Finance followed protocol. Nobody flagged it. The real CFO found out 45 minutes later.

The fraud took 13 minutes. Then the real crisis started. Who tells the board? Do you disclose publicly? Regulators want answers within hours. Media calls your switchboard. Clients question whether their data is safe.

They lost $499K in 13 minutes. The crisis that followed lasted six weeks. They weren't ready for either.

The Problem

The incident is the trigger. What happens next is the crisis.

A deepfake, a data breach, a workplace fatality — the initial event is just the first five minutes. The real damage happens in the hours and weeks that follow, when your team needs to coordinate board disclosure, regulator notifications, media responses, client communications, and internal messaging — all at once.

72% of companies have no crisis plan. Only 7% have a crisis team. The rest find out how ready they are when it's already too late.

Your next crisis won't wait. Neither should you.
