Any organization or business that has had to deal with a cyber breach understands the stress that accompanies the process, no matter how well prepared or rehearsed it is for cyber events. All breaches come with a unique set of challenges and requirements. An incident response team often referred to as an IRT, is a team of individuals who are available, are ready, and have the expertise to investigate a data breach. IRT must understand the full scope of the breach to contain it, which typically includes understanding the entire life cycle of the attack. Forensic specialists can provide valuable information to the rest of the IRT team by examining logs, traffic, and systems to gain insight on the full scope of a breach. Discuss what the forensics investigators need to identify to understand how to scope the data breach incident.
