You are the security officer for a mid-sized company and are developing an incident response plan (IRP). Which key element should be included in the preparation phase of your IRP?
An Incident Response Plan (IRP) is essential for ensuring a coordinated, effective response to security incidents. During the preparation phase, it is critical to define a clear, actionable incident response plan, which includes details such as incident response team roles, responsibilities, communication channels, and processes. Playbooks, which provide step-by-step instructions for specific types of incidents, are also included in this phase. While root cause analysis and lessons learned are important, they typically fall under post-incident activities.
