Response controls

Freeze public publishing temporarily

Stops accidental harm while you confirm integrity.

Restrict access to registered users only

A safety dial. You still need comms and justification.

Publish a holding statement with a time-box

If you go silent, the rumour mill writes your story for you.

Require an incident log entry (decision trace)

If it is not written down, it did not happen (forensically).
