RS.AN-01
Does your organization have a documented process for investigating notifications from security detection systems?
Explanation
This question assesses whether your organization has established procedures to analyze and respond to security alerts generated by detection systems such as intrusion detection systems (IDS), security information and event management (SIEM) tools, or endpoint detection and response (EDR) solutions. Proper investigation of these notifications is crucial for identifying potential security incidents, determining their scope and impact, and initiating appropriate response actions. Evidence could include an incident response playbook that outlines the investigation process, documentation of alert triage procedures, or logs showing alert investigations with timestamps and outcomes. Screenshots of your security operations dashboard showing alert handling workflows would also serve as suitable evidence.
