Establishing Incident Escalation Process

by Nikhil Singhvi S

An incident is an event that could lead to loss of, or disruption to, an organization's operations, services or functions. Incident management is a term describing the activities of an organization to identify, analyze, and correct hazards to prevent a future recurrence. If not managed, an incident can escalate into an emergency, crisis or a disaster. Incident management is therefore the process of limiting the potential disruption caused by such an event, followed by a return to business as usual. Without effective incident management, an incident can disrupt business operations, information security, IT systems, employees, customers, or other vital business functions.

It originated from the cryptocurrency Bitcoin, but has found application in far reaching fields, part from finance, like supply chain management, quality assurance, health, entertainment and so on.

How to improve incident response capability

by Collins Bunde

Incident response is an act of responding in a systematic and methodical way to internal and external security breaches. To battle today’s threats, you need an effective IR strategy. That is, you need to prepare for, respond to and remediate. Notably, the IR team is a panoply of experienced workforce, proven methodologies and the right technology to analyze an attacker’s TTPs and piece together a coherent finding for the breach. These findings should include details of how the attacker got in, which systems were compromised, what was accessed, and whether such information is governed by any laws, regulations or contracts. Sometimes reducing the mean time to remediation is the role of an effective IR.
