Learning from Incidents

Learning from Incidents

Every incident provides valuable lessons:

Post-Incident Analysis:

  • What reconnaissance preceded the attack?
  • Which psychological tactics succeeded?
  • Where did verification procedures fail?
  • How did attackers gain credibility?
  • What technical controls were bypassed?
  • Which training gaps were exposed?

Improvement Implementation: Convert lessons into concrete improvements:

  • Updated training scenarios
  • Revised security policies
  • New technical controls
  • Enhanced procedures
  • Better detection methods
  • Stronger culture elements
