Incident Response Policy

This policy from TechRepublic Premium provides information on defining an incident, assigning an incident response team, documenting a plan and conducting a response.

It can be customized to meet the needs of your organization.

Featured text from the policy:

DOCUMENT AN INCIDENT RESPONSE PLAN

Draw up a plan for incident response and start by including a detailed list of system/application/device information (or reference to where the information can be found). The list should include items such as host names, IP addresses, functions, data flow diagrams, network diagrams, system hardware inventory, logging and authentication information — anything that would be necessary to know to determine the status of the systems/applications and how to remediate security incidents related thereto.
