RS.AN – Incident Analysis#

Investigations are conducted to ensure effective response and support forensics and recovery activities

RS.AN-01

Notifications from detection systems are investigated

RS.AN-02

The impact of the incident is understood

RS.AN-03

Analysis is performed to establish what has taken place during an incident and the root cause of the incident

Examples:

  • Determine the sequence of events that occurred during the incident and which assets and resources were involved in each event
  • Attempt to determine what vulnerabilities, threats, and threat actors were directly or indirectly involved in the incident
  • Analyze the incident to find the underlying, systemic root causes
  • Check any cyber deception technology for additional information on attacker behavior

RS.AN-04

Incidents are categorized consistent with response plans

RS.AN-05

Processes are established to receive, analyze and respond to vulnerabilities disclosed to the organization from internal and external sources (e.g. internal testing, security bulletins, or security researchers)

RS.AN-06

Actions performed during an investigation are recorded, and the records’ integrity and provenance are preserved

Examples:

  • Require each incident responder and others (e.g., system administrators, cybersecurity engineers) who perform incident response tasks to record their actions and make the record immutable
  • Require the incident lead to document the incident in detail and be responsible for preserving the integrity of the documentation and the sources of all information being reported

RS.AN-07

Incident data and metadata are collected, and their integrity and provenance are preserved

Examples:

  • Collect, preserve, and safeguard the integrity of all pertinent incident data and metadata (e.g., data source, date/time of collection) based on evidence preservation and chain-of-custody procedures

RS.AN-08

An incident’s magnitude is estimated and validated

Examples:

  • Review other potential targets of the incident to search for indicators of compromise and evidence of persistence
  • Automatically run tools on targets to look for indicators of compromise and evidence of persistence

RS.CO – Incident Response Reporting and Communication#

Response activities are coordinated with internal and external stakeholders as required by laws, regulations, or policies

RS.CO-01

Personnel know their roles and order of operations when a response is needed

RS.CO-02

Internal and external stakeholders are notified of incidents

Examples:

  • Follow the organization’s breach notification procedures after discovering a data breach incident, including notifying affected customers
  • Notify business partners and customers of incidents in accordance with contractual requirements
  • Notify law enforcement agencies and regulatory bodies of incidents based on criteria in the incident response plan and management approval

RS.CO-03

Information is shared with designated internal and external stakeholders

Examples:

  • Securely share information consistent with response plans and information sharing agreements
  • Voluntarily share information about an attacker’s observed TTPs, with all sensitive data removed, with an Information Sharing and Analysis Center (ISAC)
  • Notify HR when malicious insider activity occurs
  • Regularly update senior leadership on the status of major incidents
  • Follow the rules and protocols defined in contracts for incident information sharing between the organization and its suppliers
  • Coordinate crisis communication methods between the organization and its critical suppliers

RS.CO-04

Coordination with stakeholders occurs consistent with response plans

RS.CO-05

Voluntary information sharing occurs with external stakeholders to achieve broader cybersecurity situational awareness

RS.IM – Improvements#

RS.IM-01

Response plans incorporate lessons learned

RS.IM-02

Response strategies are updated

RS.MA – Incident Management#

Responses to detected cybersecurity incidents are managed

RS.MA-01

The incident response plan is executed in coordination with relevant third parties once an incident is declared

Examples:

  • Detection technologies automatically report confirmed incidents
  • Request incident response assistance from the organization’s incident response outsourcer
  • Designate an incident lead for each incident
  • Initiate execution of additional cybersecurity plans as needed to support incident response (for example, business continuity and disaster recovery)

RS.MA-02

Incident reports are triaged and validated

Examples:

  • Preliminarily review incident reports to confirm that they are cybersecurity-related and necessitate incident response activities
  • Apply criteria to estimate the severity of an incident

RS.MA-03

Incidents are categorized and prioritized

Examples:

  • Further review and categorize incidents based on the type of incident (e.g., data breach, ransomware, DDoS, account compromise)
  • Prioritize incidents based on their scope, likely impact, and time-critical nature
  • Select incident response strategies for active incidents by balancing the need to quickly recover from an incident with the need to observe the attacker or conduct a more thorough investigation

RS.MA-04

Incidents are escalated or elevated as needed

Examples:

  • Track and validate the status of all ongoing incidents
  • Coordinate incident escalation or elevation with designated internal and external stakeholders

RS.MA-05

The criteria for initiating incident recovery are applied

Examples:

  • Apply incident recovery criteria to known and assumed characteristics of the incident to determine whether incident recovery processes should be initiated
  • Take the possible operational disruption of incident recovery activities into account

RS.MI – Incident Mitigation#

Activities are performed to prevent expansion of an event and mitigate its effects

RS.MI-01

Incidents are contained

Examples:

  • Cybersecurity technologies (e.g., antivirus software) and cybersecurity features of other technologies (e.g., operating systems, network infrastructure devices) automatically perform containment actions
  • Allow incident responders to manually select and perform containment actions
  • Allow a third party (e.g., internet service provider, managed security service provider) to perform containment actions on behalf of the organization
  • Automatically transfer compromised endpoints to a remediation virtual local area network (VLAN)

RS.MI-02

Incidents are eradicated

Examples:

  • Cybersecurity technologies and cybersecurity features of other technologies (e.g., operating systems, network infrastructure devices) automatically perform eradication actions
  • Allow incident responders to manually select and perform eradication actions
  • Allow a third party (e.g., managed security service provider) to perform eradication actions on behalf of the organization

RS.MI-03

Newly identified vulnerabilities are mitigated or documented as accepted risks

RS.RP – Response Planning#

RS.RP-01

Response plan is executed during or after an incident
