The checklist is the front door to the First 72 Hours framework.
Most organizations do not fail in the first seventy-two hours because they lack tools. They struggle because leadership decisions, evidence preservation, business continuity, communications, and recovery priorities are not clearly owned before the incident begins.
Use this checklist to identify where executive cyber readiness may break down before a real incident forces high-consequence decisions under pressure.
