CISA Publishes Cybersecurity Incident and Vulnerability Response Playbooks

The Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) just released two playbooks for federal executive branch agencies to serve as guides on how “to respond to vulnerabilities and incidents” impacting their networks. The playbooks provide operational guidelines for planning and conducting cybersecurity incident and vulnerability response activities. Illustrated decision trees and step by step instructions for both incident and vulnerability response are also included. The new operational procedures fulfill the directives issued to CISA by the White House’s Executive Order 14028. CISA encourages critical infrastructure entities and other private sector organizations to review the new playbooks to enhance overall resilience. Access the playbooks at CISA.
