Promptly notify Asia-ISAC or the CTI Platform Provider of any suspected unauthorized access; and
Ensure that users from your organization stop using the CTI Platform when they are no longer authorized (e.g., upon leaving the company).

8. Ownership of Content and Limited License

As between you and Asia-ISAC, you retain ownership of content you or your organization submit.

Because Asia-ISAC is an international community, data may be processed in multiple jurisdictions subject to applicable safeguards.

11. Monitoring and Investigations
