SCENARIO: Critical servers show signs of erratic behavior within your organization's intranet. Initial information indicates the systems are under attack from an outside entity. As the Chief Information Security Officer (CISO), you decide to deploy the Incident Response Team (IRT) to determine the details of this incident and take action according to the information available to the team.
What phase of the response provides measures to reduce the likelihood of an incident from recurring?
The follow-up phase in incident response involves analyzing the incident to identify gaps in security controls and implement measures to prevent recurrence.
Phases of Incident Response:
Response: Immediate actions to contain and mitigate the incident.
Investigation: Gathering information to understand the incident.
Recovery: Restoring systems to normal operation.
Follow-up: Post-incident analysis and improvement measures.
Measures to Reduce Likelihood:
Root cause analysis to identify weaknesses exploited by the attack.
Implementation of improved controls and security measures.
Alignment with Objectives:
Follow-up focuses on long-term prevention, aligning with organizational resilience goals.
EC-Council CISO Reference:
Incident Response Frameworks: Emphasizes the importance of follow-up for continuous improvement.
