3.1 Unauthorized Access

  • Indicators: Failed login attempts, unusual access patterns
  • Response: Revoke access, investigate source, contain affected systems

3.2 Data Breach

  • Indicators: Unauthorized data access, exfiltration
  • Response: Immediate containment, assess scope, notify affected parties

3.3 Malware

  • Indicators: Antivirus alerts, unusual system behavior
  • Response: Isolate affected systems, remove malware, restore from clean backups

3.4 Denial of Service

  • Indicators: Service unavailability, resource exhaustion
  • Response: Activate DDoS mitigation, scale resources, identify source

3.5 System Compromise
