Report an Incident

Responding to computer security incidents, generally, is not a simple matter. Incident management and response activities require technical knowledge, communication, and coordination among personnel who respond to the incident.

Although incident management may vary in approach, depending on the situation, the goals are constant. Accordingly, the goals of this plan are:

• Helping affected entities recover quickly and efficiently from security incidents.

• Minimizing the impact due to the loss or theft of information or disruption of critical computing services when incidents occur.

• Responding, systematically, following proven procedures, that will dramatically decrease the likelihood of reoccurrence.

• Balancing the operational and security requirements within realistic budgetary constraints.
