Explanation:
The best plan is when all issues and threats are brought to the table
and discussed. This cannot be done effectively with a few people who are familiar
with only a couple of departments. Representatives from each department must be
involved with not only the planning stages but also the testing and implementation
stages.
The committee should be made up of representatives from at least the following
departments:
– Business units
– Senior management
– IT department
– Security department
– Communications department
– Legal department
