Our breach notification specialists have helped clients across multiple industries fulfil their notification responsibilities, which gives us insight into the unique obligations and risk levels that apply to certain industries, particularly those that are highly regulated. We work with clients and their legal teams to draft data breach notices that are timely, cost-effective and appropriate to the specific audience and the sensitivity of the data involved.

In cases where sending notification letters is not feasible or appropriate, Kroll offers alternative notification methods. Working with an organisation’s legal counsel, PR agency/communications staff or other members of their response team, we can facilitate the distribution of notices via email or public notifications when contact information is not known or the affected population is too large for print notification. Kroll can also create customised FAQ documents in multiple languages or set up a notification-specific microsite to facilitate notice to the public and, where appropriate, assist with enrollment in monitoring services.
