Incident Response Services


The Incident Response Services app works as a service level agreement (SLA) for the users to determine the extent of impact of a cyber security incident on the business and the urgency of responses by the Red Piranha Incident Response Team. The selections made by the administrator in this application have a direct impact on the incident priority levels, acknowledgment time, response time and the service target.


Right-hand Navigation Menu > Compliance Controls > Incident Response Services


Configuring SLA Assets & Services involves selecting the alert types for detailed analysis by Red Piranha incident response team, determining the extent of impact of a cyber security incident on the business and ascertaining the urgency levels of the responses. An incident’s priority is determined by its impact on users and on the business and its urgency. Urgency is how quickly a resolution is required; impact is the measure of the extent of potential damage the incident may cause.
