Q : What happens if you experience a privacy or security incident?E-Verify 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. E-Verify 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 E-Verify aligns with the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Privacy Incident Handling Guidance (PIHG) which can be found in the "Related Links" section of the E-Verify Q&A main page. |
