What is Incident Handling?

Incident Handling/Response is a structured approach to handling various types of security incidents, cyber threats, and data breaches. The incident response methodology aims to identify, contain, and minimize the cost of a cyberattack or a live incident. A well-built incident response (IR) plan can fix a potential vulnerability to prevent future attacks. The process outlined in the NIST framework includes five phases:

  • Preparation
  • Detection and analysis
  • Containment
  • Eradication and recovery
  • Post-event activity

CTIA is in compliance with JTA listed under the ‘Analyze’ category of NICE 2.0 with 100% compliance to the CREST framework.
