Technical Mitigations AI-generated
• Use a secure login system with multi-factor authentication to prevent the theft of credentials.
• Regularly monitor for signs of data deletion attempts, such as unusual file access patterns or deleted files being restored from backups.
• Implement a robust incident response plan that includes verifying the permanent deletion of sensitive data through multiple channels and not relying solely on self-reported assurances.
