- Defining an Incident Response Plan
An Incident Response Plan is how IT professionals are going to minimize damage done by a cyber incident. This plan will have the detailed step-by-step actions your team will take to mitigate and stop the spread of a cyber attack. The plan should be well documented and written down.

- What Should it Include?
- The incident response plan should cover small incidents all the way up to a large cyber attack incident.
- Team members and their roles should be clearly defined within this plan.
- Maybe the most important part of creating an incident response plan, would be to rehearse and practice all the scenarios within before there is actually an incident in the workplace.
