{tableName=glossary, name=Incident Lifecycle, description= The incident lifecycle is the process of managing and responding to incidents in an organized and systematic way. It includes identification, containment, investigation, resolution, and recovery phases. During the identification phase, potential incidents are identified and classified. In the containment phase, the incident is contained and the risk of further damage is minimized. During the investigation phase, the incident is investigated in order to determine the root cause and any potential vulnerabilities that may have been exploited. The resolution phase involves implementing the necessary corrective action to prevent the incident from occurring again. Finally, the recovery phase involves restoring the affected systems and services to their pre-incident state. The incident lifecycle is an important part of incident response, as it provides a structured approach to ensure that incidents are handled in a timely and effective manner., topic=[{id=97620570528, createdAt=1673040885452, updatedAt=1683947994134, path='cybersecurity-risk-management', name=' Cybersecurity Risk Management: A Guide for Businesses', 1='{type=string, value=Cybersecurity Risk Management}', 2='{type=string, value= This guide provides essential information on cyber security risk management, including how to identify, assess, and mitigate risks to your organization's data and systems.
