Abstract: In the incident response (IR) lifecycle that involves phases of preparation, identification, containment, mitigation, and recovery, planning a threat response protocol holds significant importance. Incident response planning involves preparing comprehensive strategies to swiftly and effectively address cybersecurity breaches or data security emergencies. It involves identifying threats, establishing response protocols, training personnel, and regularly testing and updating procedures to mitigate risks and minimize the impact of incidents on an organization’s operations and reputation. This webinar, from the “A Guide to Incident Response Framework” series, will detail the process of developing and implementing an incident response plan framework. It further addresses testing considerations across a wide range of industries to identify where organizations go wrong when it comes to testing and allocating resources for testing.

Key Takeaways:

• Composition of an IR Plan
• Key Considerations
• IR Testing
• Pen Testing
• Vulnerability Assessment
• Testing Selection
