Incident Response Priorities

A useful response capability combines preparation, evidence preservation, containment, and safe recovery.

Prepare

Define roles, decision authority, communication paths, and evidence sources before an incident.

Principle: Response planning

Contain

Limit harmful activity while preserving evidence needed to understand scope and cause.

Principle: Incident control

Recover

Restore from trusted states, validate controls, and monitor for repeated or residual activity.

Principle: Safe restoration
