There's a court case that establishes that the costs of forensics/etc to determine
the scope of the intrusion can be counted towards that $5K. Interestingly enough,
that same case also resulted in the ruling that mere port scanning didn't count
as an intrusion.
I don't have the case citation handy, but I'm sure somebody on the list does...
