e) Inactive Intrusion response procedure

f) System abuse procedure

g) Property theft response procedure

h) Website denial of service response procedure

i) Database or file denial of service response procedure

j) Spyware response procedure.

The team may create additional procedures which are not foreseen in this document. If there is no applicable procedure in place, the team must document what was done and later establish a procedure for the incident.

9) Team members will use forensic techniques, including reviewing system logs, looking for gaps in logs, reviewing intrusion detection logs, and interviewing witnesses and the incident victim to determine how the incident was caused. Only authorized personnel should be performing interviews or examining evidence, and the authorized personnel may vary by situation and the organization.

10) Team members will recommend changes to prevent the occurrence from happening again or infecting other systems.

11) Upon management approval, the changes will be implemented.

12) Team members will restore the affected system(s) to the uninfected state. They may do any or more of the following:

a) Re-install the affected system(s) from scratch and restore data from backups if necessary. Preserve evidence before doing this.

b) Make users change passwords if passwords may have been sniffed.

c) Be sure the system has been hardened by turning off or uninstalling unused services.

d) Be sure the system is fully patched.

e) Be sure real time virus protection and intrusion detection is running.

f) Be sure the system is logging the correct events and to the proper level.

13) Documentation—the following shall be documented:

a) How the incident was discovered.

b) The category of the incident.

c) How the incident occurred, whether through email, firewall, etc.

d) Where the attack came from, such as IP addresses and other related information about the attacker.

e) What the response plan was.

f) What was done in response?

g) Whether the response was effective.

14) Evidence Preservation—make copies of logs, email, and other communication. Keep lists of witnesses. Keep evidence as long as necessary to complete prosecution and beyond in case of an appeal.

15) Notify proper external agencies—notify the police and other appropriate agencies if prosecution of the intruder is possible. List the agencies and contact numbers here.

16) Assess damage and cost—assess the damage to the organization and estimate both the damage cost and the cost of the containment efforts.

17) Review response and update policies—plan and take preventative steps so the intrusion can’t happen again.

a) Consider whether an additional policy could have prevented the intrusion.

b) Consider whether a procedure or policy was not followed which allowed the intrusion, and then consider what could be changed to ensure that the procedure or policy is followed in the future.

c) Was the incident response appropriate? How could it be improved?

d) Was every appropriate party informed in a timely manner?

e) Were the incident-response procedures detailed and did they cover the entire situation? How can they be improved?

f) Have changes been made to prevent a re-infection? Have all systems been patched, systems locked down, passwords changed, anti-virus updated, email policies set, etc.?

g) Have changes been made to prevent a new and similar infection?

h) Should any security policies be updated?

i) What lessons have been learned from this experience?
