Incident Response
Understand the access. Clarify the impact.
Assess the evidence of unauthorized activity and possible information exposure across the relevant environment.
01
Frame the investigation.
Identify the reported indicators, systems involved and business information of concern. Clarify the questions and evidence priorities with the people coordinating the response.
02
Examine available activity.
Consider relevant device, account and log records where available. Correlate sources and document limitations instead of treating a single event as the complete history.
03
Explain degrees of certainty.
Separate confirmed findings, indicators and unknowns. Leadership and legal advisers need that distinction when considering operational, communication and notification decisions.
RELEVANT SOURCES
Start with what is available.
Discuss the sources that can help answer the question, within an authorized scope.
