Incident Response - Incident Response Planning

Prepare your organization for cybersecurity incidents with NOXMON's comprehensive incident response and business continuity planning. We develop customized response procedures that enable rapid containment and swift recovery.

Rapid Response Readiness

NOXMON's incident response planning follows NIST SP 800-61 Computer Security Incident Handling Guide and SANS Incident Response methodology. Our approach covers the complete incident lifecycle: preparation, identification, containment, eradication, recovery, and lessons learned.

We develop customized incident response playbooks for common attack scenarios including ransomware, data breaches, insider threats, and supply chain compromises. Our plans integrate with business continuity requirements to minimize operational impact during incidents.

The planning process includes threat scenario modeling based on industry threat intelligence, response team training, communication protocols, legal and regulatory notification procedures, and forensic evidence preservation guidelines.

Incident Response Framework
