Most businesses don't have a plan for when they get hacked. Not if — when. In Episode 86 of UnHacked, Justin, Mario, and Bryan dig into one of the least glamorous — but most critically important — topics in cybersecurity: policies, procedures, and incident response planning.
Here's the hard truth they unpack: your firewall won't save you if your people don't know what to do. The gap between a breach and a catastrophe is almost always human behavior — and that's exactly what policies and incident response plans are designed to address.
In this episode, you'll learn:
The top 3 policies every business needs right now (including one you've almost certainly overlooked)
The top 3 policies every business needs right now (including one you've almost certainly overlooked)
- Why most policies fail — and the three elements every good policy must have
- How to build a genuine security culture, not just a signed employee handbook nobody reads
- What an incident response plan actually covers (hint: it's not just an IT problem)
- The single most important document a business owner can create to protect themselves legally and operationally
PLUS — a major announcement: the UnHacked team is launching a free portal to help business owners score their cybersecurity posture, build an action plan, and hold their IT providers accountable.

Bryan Lachapelle
Hi, I’m Bryan, and I’m the President of B4 Networks. I started working with technology since early childhood, and routinely took apart computers as early as age 13. I received my education in Computer Engineering Technology from Niagara College. Starting B4 Networks was always a dream for me, and this dream became true in 2004. I originally started B4 Networks to service the residential market but found that my true passion was in the commercial and industrial sectors where I could truly utilize my experience as a Network Administrator for a large Toronto based Marine Shipping company. My passion today is to ensure that each and every client receives top of the line services. My first love is for my wonderful family. I also enjoy the outdoors, camping, and helping others. I’m an active Canadian Forces Officer working with the 613 Fonthill Army Cadets as a member of their training staff.
