Security incidents can have a significant impact on an organization and its operations, so it is essential for organizations to develop a comprehensive plan in order to effectively handle security incidents. The best practice for handling security incidents involves developing an Incident Response Plan (IRP) that outlines the steps that need to be taken to identify, mitigate, and recover from any potential cyber attacks or other threats the organization might face. The IRP should include the following components:

1) Identification of key stakeholders responsible for responding to security incidents.

2) A process for reporting and monitoring security incidents.
