Breach Counsel Platform
Central project management at your fingertips
Over 35 billion known records have been breached in 2024 globally with monthly averages equalling over eight billion. Data breaches remain among the biggest concerns of company leaders worldwide.
Our Breach Counsel Platform is an efficient and intuitive project management tool that can help you easily and effectively navigate data breach responses.
The shared platform provides structure and organisation by allowing you to store documents in an easily accessible format. You can also collaborate on documents in real time, ensuring you’re always looking at the most up-to-date information.
Our data protection experts have designed a project management template to help you manage data breaches, with transparency on progress of each phase and task.
The timeline view feature also lets you know which deadlines are upcoming, so you can plan your response better.
The platform is tried, tested, and continuously being improved by feedback from our clients who are using it. Join them by getting in touch to see how we can help you deal with your data breach responses.

Breach Counsel Platform: in action
Dealing with a live multi-jurisdictional data breach
What was the issue?
A US-based online digital services client used the platform during a live multi-jurisdictional incident where they were dealing with a data breach involving several million individuals.
How did we help?
The breach required us to advise on and file data breach notifications in over 30 jurisdictions across the world and manage the specific requirements of each regulatory regime.
The platform allowed us to create and maintain a ‘single version of the truth’ to ensure efficiency and consistency globally. It minimised the amount of work required of the client to provide information and answer questions. The ability to create, allocate and track actions meant that our global team could work consistently across time zones to meet tight deadlines wherever and whenever they fell.
Working with this client also provided valuable insight in continuing to refine and improve the platform.
