How much damage can a security incident cause in one minute? How much damage can that same security incident cause if left unreported for one hour? Is that 60 times the potential damage? Or what about one day or even a week or longer?

Incident response is a vital part of mitigating the damage caused by security events and preventing similar events in the future. Users need to know when and how to report any incidents they may encounter in their daily routines. This month’s issue focuses on that issue and highlights the importance of incident response as matter of policy.

1. One of the top ways to prevent future incidents is by doing this. (reporting incidents ASAP)
2. Name at least two types of incidents to report immediately. (phishing emails, vishing, random USB drives, unfamiliar person)
3. Every person must always do this in order to keep our organization secure. (Follow policy)
4. Social engineers have been known to plant these hoping someone will find and access them. (USB drives)
5. Individuals who fail to follow policy are known as what? (Insider threats)
