Q : What happens if SAVE experiences a privacy or security incident?

SAVE has a formal security and privacy incident response plan designed to ensure that incidents are reported, appropriately handled and responded to in a timely fashion to minimize resultant impacts.  SAVE will assess the privacy risk posed by an incident, the appropriateness of notifying affected individuals, and the utility of offering support, such as credit report monitoring, on a case-by-case basis.  The incident response plan for SAVE aligns with the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Privacy Incident Handling Guidance (PIHG), which can be found in the "Related Links" section of the SAVE Q&A main page.
