I've been reading up on NIST 800-53 and am trying to develop a comprehensive incident response plan for my organization. I understand that NIST has extensive guidelines on security controls including those related to incident response. However, I'm having some trouble figuring out how to effectively implement these controls in a way that suits my organization's specific needs.
For those of you who have successfully created an incident response plan using the NIST framework, could you share some insights or best practices? I'm particularly curious about:
- How you tailored the general guidelines from NIST to fit your specific industry or organizational context.
- Any challenges you encountered during implementation and how you overcame them.
- Tips on training staff and ensuring that the incident response plan is actionable and regularly updated.
- Tools or resources that you found helpful in aiding compliance with the NIST guidelines.
Looking forward to hearing your experiences and recommendations!
