As a digital forensics student, it is important to understand the steps involved in incident response and how to develop an incident response plan. In this assignment, you will create a personal incident response plan using one of the incident response frameworks discussed in class.
Resource Assignment Instructions (Individual):
1. Choose one incident response framework that was discussed (e.g. NIST, SANS, etc).
2. Research and review the key steps involved in the framework you have chosen.
3. Develop a personal incident response plan that outlines the steps you would take if you were the victim of a cyber attack or security breach.
4. Your plan should include the following components:
a. An overview of your incident response team, including their roles and responsibilities.
b. A description of the types of incidents that your plan covers, such as malware infections, data breaches, or denial-of-service attacks.
c. The steps you would take to detect and analyze an incident, including monitoring and logging tools you would use.
d. The steps you would take to contain and eradicate the incident, such as isolating infected systems, shutting down compromised services, or removing malicious code.
e. The steps you would take to recover from the incident, such as restoring data from backups or rebuilding systems.
f. A plan for post-incident review and improvement.
5. Use clear and concise language to describe each step in your plan, and provide examples and resources where necessary.
