Did the organization’s corporate culture in how it handled its information security practices, and procedures cause the incident to occur? Explain. What aspect of the organization failed that lead to the event? Was it an internal or external failure, or both?

What aspect of the organization’s contingency plan was underdeveloped, or not developed – the incident response plan, disaster recovery plan, business continuity plan, or a combination of a few of these plans?

If you were responsible for the organization’s Business Continuity and Disaster Recovery planning efforts, what would you have done differently after the event? Why do you believe that your direction would have worked? Elaborate on your response.
