What is Incident Response?
Incident response (IR) is the structured process of detecting, containing, eradicating, and recovering from security incidents. A typical IR plan includes preparation (tools, procedures, team), identification (detecting the incident), containment (stopping the spread), eradication (removing the threat), recovery (restoring systems), and lessons learned (improving defenses). Having a well-practiced IR plan significantly reduces the impact of security incidents.
