From Hack to Recovery: How to Bounce Back from a Cyber Attack

You work hard to grow your business. The last thing you need is a cyber attack threatening everything you've built.

When hackers strike, it’s overwhelming, confusing, and downright scary. You start asking yourself: How bad is it? Who has access to my data? How fast can I fix this?

If you’ve ever found yourself in this situation — or want to be prepared just in case — you’re not alone. You deserve a plan that gets you back on your feet quickly and protects your future.

At PCS, we help businesses recover fast and come back stronger after cyber attacks. Here's what you need to do — and how we can guide you through it.

Step 1: Contain the Damage Immediately

When a cyber-attack hits, time is critical.

You need to stop the spread before it impacts even more systems.

• Disconnect compromised devices from the network.
• Identify what was affected: data, systems, applications

We help you act quickly to minimize downtime and damage, giving you room to breathe and focus on the next steps.

Step 2: Bring in Cybersecurity Experts

You don’t have to handle this alone, and frankly, you shouldn’t.

Recovering from a cyber-attack takes specialized tools, training, and experience. PCS brings a team of cybersecurity pros who:

• Track down how attackers got in
• Evict them (for good)
• Secure your systems so they can’t waltz back in

With PCS, you have a trusted guide who knows the battlefield and can lead you to safety.

Step 3: Communicate Clearly and Quickly

Once you understand what happened, it's time to notify the right people.
Customers, partners, and regulators deserve honesty and action.

We’ll help you craft clear, confident messaging so you rebuild trust instead of losing it.
(And we’ll make sure you check every legal box along the way.)

Step 4: Learn From the Attack

After the immediate crisis passes, one big question remains:
What can you do to make sure this never happens again?

PCS helps you review what went wrong and build stronger defenses, including:

• Updated security policies
• Smarter employee training
• System upgrades to lock down vulnerabilities

You don’t just need a recovery. You need a comeback plan.

Step 5: Build a Stronger, Smarter Recovery Plan

Surviving one attack isn’t enough.
Preparing for the next one is how you truly win.

PCS works with you to create a personalized incident response plan so you know exactly what to do if disaster strikes again.
No panic. No guessing. Just a clear, confident plan and a partner ready to move with you.
