The Effective Incident Response Team by Julie Lucas

The Effective Incident Response Team by Julie Lucas

When an intruder, worm, virus, or automated attack persists in targeting a computer system, having specific controls in place and a plan of action for responding to the attack or computer incident can greatly reduce the resultant costs to an organization. The implementation of a Computer Incident Response Team, whether it's formed with internal or external resources, is one safeguard that can have a large return on investment during a crisis situation.This book serves as a guide to anyone contemplating or being tasked with forming a Computer Incident Response Team. The creation of such a team is not a trivial matter and there are many issues that must be addressed up front to help ensure a smooth implementation. This book will try to identify most of these issues to help with the creation process. Once the team is formed and operational, this guide will continue to serve as a resource while the team evolves to respond to the ever changing types of vulnerabilities.**Foreword by Steve Romig, Manager, Network Security Group, Ohio State University.**
