== '''Action Steps (Before Crisis)''' ==

The Team should:

* Consider advising the appropriate law enforcement agencies and regulators.
* Consider making a holding reply to gain time.
* Obtain information on the person/ organization making the request, if possible.
* Assess the credibility of the demand and the feasibility of the perpetrators being able to carry out their threats within any time scale set.

== '''Action Steps (During Crisis)''' ==

Whilst making the assessment:

* Do not respond further to the initial approach
* Improve security/protection of the assets being threatened
* Prepare for further approaches
* Consider the following options:
* Payment: full demand or negotiated settlement
* Resist: refuse to pay, leave the threatened assets/area, or allow the attack to take place and security reaction to take its course
* Remove: appear to negotiate whilst organising an arrest operation with law enforcement agencies.
