Q6: What cybersecurity measures are in place?

A: Cybersecurity measures include:

  • Encryption (at rest and in transit)
  • Access controls
  • Intrusion detection
  • Security monitoring
  • Incident response
  • Regular security audits

Reference: Title X: Security, NIST 800-53 Security Controls


INCIDENT RESPONSE QUESTIONS

Q7: What should I do if I discover a security incident?

A: Security incident response:

  1. Immediate: Report to Security Department immediately
  2. Containment: Follow containment procedures
  3. Investigation: Support security investigation
  4. Resolution: Implement resolution measures
  5. Documentation: Document incident and resolution

Reference: Security Incident Example, Title X: Security


Q8: How are security incidents classified?

A: Security incident classification:

  • Critical: Immediate threat, requires immediate response
  • High: Significant threat, requires urgent response
  • Medium: Moderate threat, requires timely response
