RC.CO-04.363
Has your organization documented an incident recovery plan that includes steps for both remediation and prevention of future similar incidents?
Explanation
An effective incident recovery plan should outline specific actions to restore normal operations after a security incident and implement measures to prevent recurrence. This includes root cause analysis, system restoration procedures, and specific security improvements to address identified vulnerabilities. Evidence could include a formal incident recovery document or playbook that details both immediate recovery actions and longer-term preventive measures, post-incident reports showing implemented improvements, or documentation of lessons learned sessions that resulted in specific security enhancements.
