One of the handiest modules (IMO) inside 6clicks has just had a bit of work done. And it looks a whole lot better than a celebrity after a dodgy Beverly Hills surgery.
6clicks Projects was awesome enough to allow anyone associated with risk and compliance activities to manage all of the team's tasks in the same place they run risk and compliance engagements.
I mean, it spelt the end for separate tools and log-ins, spreadsheets or sticky notes and gave us one place for all our tasks, files and communication.
But that wasn't enough for our product, security and content teams. The greed for fast intelligence... the terrifying lust for smart and agile GRC... will their gluttonous appetite to combine content, function, AI and reporting ever be satisfied!??
Probably not, because the module is now called 'Projects & Playbooks' - and it's an absolute banger.
Let's face it, stuff goes wrong. All the time. Just look at the finale of Dexter, or the 9th season of Scrubs for that matter.
From stolen credentials and malware infections to remote access and device theft dramas - the chances of things going awry is becoming higher every day in business.
To that end, the team has come up with these 'hacks' of sorts. Playbooks are like your quiet achievers in the background - methodologies that may well save your entire organisation.
Here's the mindset order:
Preparation: Get ready to handle the incident
Identification: Detect the incident
Containment: Limit the impact of the incident
Remediation: Address or remove the threat
Recovery: Get back to your normal stage of operation
Aftermath: Reflect on what's been learnt and improve future processes
Brilliantly, the amount of playbooks in the Content Library is already packed (and growing, no doubt) which means you can shore up your offensive line really well, check out the selection here:
