Incident Response Process (IRP)

The Incident Response Process (IRP) is a structured approach to managing and mitigating the impact of cybersecurity incidents.

Incident Response Process (IRP)

Restore and validate system functionality, ensuring that systems are back to normal operation and any affected data is recovered.

Identification
Detect and identify potential security incidents through continuous monitoring and analysis of systems and networks.
Containment
Implement measures to limit the impact and spread of the incident, such as isolating affected systems and blocking malicious traffic.
Eradication
Remove the root cause of the incident, such as deleting malware, closing vulnerabilities, and ensuring no traces of the threat remain.
Lessons Learned
Conduct a post-incident review to analyze what happened, how it was handled, and what can be improved. Update the incident response plan accordingly.
