Assessment Objective

Determine if:

• IR-04a.
  • IR-04a.[01] an incident handling capability for incidents is implemented that is consistent with the incident response plan;
  • IR-04a.[02] the incident handling capability for incidents includes preparation;
  • IR-04a.[03] the incident handling capability for incidents includes detection and analysis;
  • IR-04a.[04] the incident handling capability for incidents includes containment;
  • IR-04a.[05] the incident handling capability for incidents includes eradication;
  • IR-04a.[06] the incident handling capability for incidents includes recovery;
• IR-04b. incident handling activities are coordinated with contingency planning activities;
• IR-04c.
  • IR-04c.[01] lessons learned from ongoing incident handling activities are incorporated into incident response procedures, training, and testing;
  • IR-04c.[02] the changes resulting from the incorporated lessons learned are implemented accordingly;
• IR-04d.
  • IR-04d.[01] the rigor of incident handling activities is comparable and predictable across the organization;
  • IR-04d.[02] the intensity of incident handling activities is comparable and predictable across the organization;
  • IR-04d.[03] the scope of incident handling activities is comparable and predictable across the organization;
  • IR-04d.[04] the results of incident handling activities are comparable and predictable across the organization.
