In episode 163 of the PreparedEx Podcast, we explore the often-overlooked gap between cybersecurity response and public communications during a cyber incident. While many organizations invest heavily in technical controls and incident response plans, far fewer are prepared to manage the reputational, regulatory, and stakeholder consequences that unfold in parallel. Rob Burton is joined by Ann Marie van den Hurk, Founder of Mind The Gap Cyber Public Relations, to discuss how organizations can better align cybersecurity, legal, executive leadership, and communications teams before a cyber crisis occurs—not during it. The conversation focuses on real-world lessons, common missteps, and practical steps leaders can take to protect trust, credibility, and enterprise value when cyber incidents go public.
