You are the lead cybersecurity analyst at your company and have just identified a critical vulnerability on your main production servers. Which stakeholder should be immediately informed to ensure that business processes are not disrupted?
The IT operations team should be informed promptly as they are directly responsible for managing and maintaining the production servers. Involving them early ensures prompt remediation efforts without causing unnecessary business process interruptions. While other stakeholders such as the compliance team, customers, and PR team may also need to be informed, their involvement is secondary in the immediate technical assessment and remediation.
