That means businesses are faced to either outsource the work to expensive consultants or they ignore the requirement and hope they do not get in trouble for being non-compliant with a compliance requirement. In either situation, it is not a good place to be. The good news is that your CyberSecurityResource developed a viable incident response program, which is the "gold standard" for incident response programs.This document is capable of scaling for any sized company. The reality is that incidents do not care if your responders are or are not prepared and generally with incident response operations if you fail to plan you plan to fail. What matters most is appropriate leadership that is capable of directing response operations in an efficient and effective manner. This is where the Incident Response Program (IRP) is an invaluable resource for cybersecurity and business leaders to have a viable plan to respond to cybersecurity related incidents.The IRP is an editable Microsoft Word document, that contains the program-level documentation and process flows to establish a mature Incident Response Program. This product addresses the “how?” questions for how your company manages cybersecurity incident response.
