Réponse aux incidents
A coordinated approach to addressing and managing the aftermath of a security breach or cyberattack, with the aim of limiting damage, reducing recovery time and costs, and preventing future incidents. Involves predefined processes for detection, containment, eradication, and recovery, as formalized in NIST SP 800-61 and ISO/IEC 27035.
