Abstract: In today’s rapidly evolving cyber security landscape, organisations face a multitude of threats beyond traditional hackers and state actors. The aftermath of a data breach involves not only the immediate response and recovery efforts on the part of the breached organisation but also a complex web of regulatory and legal consequences. This paper delves into the often-overlooked challenges posed by regulatory enforcement and the potential collateral damage that organisations may face following a breach. By understanding these aspects, organisations can develop effective compliance programmes that mitigate risks and protect against legal repercussions.
