Information Security Incident

An Information Security incident is an event which appears to be a breach of the organization’s Information Security safeguards. It is important to respond calmly and to follow a logical procedure, first to prevent the breach from continuing, if possible, and second, to inform the appropriate person(s) within the organization; this usually includes the appointed Security Officer.
