Incident Response
Incident response is the structured process of identifying, containing, investigating, and recovering from a cyber incident.
It is often needed after unauthorized access, malware, ransomware, email compromise, suspicious logins, or data exposure.
Do not wipe systems before evidence is collected; preserve logs, alerts, endpoints, cloud records, and administrator actions.
