[SOLVED] Response efforts

This activity will address module outcomes 1, 3, and 4. Upon completion of this activity, you will be able to: response efforts

Identify why it is important to have a pre-established incident response plan. (CO 1, 2)
Analyze how some breaches are detected. (CO 1, 2, 5)
Evaluate various response efforts (CO 1, 3)
When cyber-attacks hit organizations, the consequences can be costly for years to come. Costs related to mitigation and recovery, corporate branding, and market share are often impacted after a major brief and (as reflected by the Target and Home Depot breaches, for example) a quick and effective response can help minimize the loss.

Having a systematic approach to incident detection and response can also provide a company with information they can use to strengthen the enterprise and address legal issues that may arise as a result of the attack. During this exercise, we will review two documents that examine response efforts.
