Track and analyze security incidents, response effectiveness, and emerging threats to maintain strong security posture and improve incident management processes.
Report Objective
Monitor and assess security incidents, their impact, and response effectiveness on a weekly basis. Identify patterns, evaluate team performance, and recommend improvements to security controls and incident response procedures.
Incident Trends and Severity
Analysis of weekly incident volume and severity distribution to identify patterns and emerging threats.
Questions to Consider:
Are there any concerning trends in incident volume or severity?
How do current incidents compare to historical patterns?
What factors are driving changes in incident patterns?
What is the week-over-week change in total incidents?
Are there any patterns in incident severity distribution?
How do current incident levels compare to historical averages?
Which incident types are most frequent?
How does the impact score correlate with incident frequency?
Are there emerging threat patterns to address?
Response Effectiveness
Evaluation of detection capabilities and response times across different incident types.
Questions to Consider:
How effective are our detection mechanisms?
Are we meeting resolution time targets?
Where can we improve our response procedures?
Is our detection rate improving over time?
How has the false positive rate changed?
What factors influence detection accuracy?
Are we meeting SLA targets for incident resolution?
Which severity levels require the most resolution time?
How can we improve resolution efficiency?
Areas for Investigation
Analyze root causes of high-severity incidents
Review effectiveness of security controls for most common incident types
Assess resource allocation based on incident patterns
Evaluate training needs based on response metrics
Investigate opportunities to reduce false positive rates
Review and update incident response playbooks
Analyze trends in external threat landscape
Assess effectiveness of automated response capabilities
