Requirements NIST SOURCE

Incorporate simulated events into incident response training to facilitate the required response by personnel in crisis situations.

Discussion (NIST Supplemental Guidance)

Organizations establish requirements for responding to incidents in incident response plans. Incorporating simulated events into incident response training helps to ensure that personnel understand their individual responsibilities and what specific actions to take in crisis situations.

Implementation Guidance

Engineering Interpretation

Original engineering commentary written for this explorer — not NIST source text and not authoritative guidance.

No engineering interpretation has been authored for IR-2(1) yet. This section is architected to receive it — see the Requirements and Assessment sections above for the authoritative NIST source content in the meantime.

Assessment

NIST SP 800-53A REV 5.2.0

Assessment Objectives

  1. simulated events are incorporated into incident response training to facilitate the required response by personnel in crisis situations.

Examine

[SELECT FROM: Incident response policy; procedures addressing incident response training; incident response training curriculum; incident response training materials; incident response plan; system security plan; privacy plan; other relevant documents or records].

Interview

[SELECT FROM: Organizational personnel with incident response training and operational responsibilities; organizational personnel with information security and privacy responsibilities].

Test

[SELECT FROM: Mechanisms that support and/or implement simulated events for incident response training].

Overlays

OT/ICS Overlay SP 800-82r3

NIST SP 800-82r3 Appendix F, Table 22. Blank baseline means the control/control enhancement is not selected in that initial OT baseline.

LOW

  • Base control: Included (matches standard baseline)

MODERATE

STIGs & CCIs

No STIG checks or CCI mappings are currently loaded for IR-2(1). This section is architected to display, per product: STIG ID, Finding ID, Severity, Title, Description, Check, Fix, CCI, and NIST control mapping — but nothing is populated here until a real DISA STIG/CCI dataset is ingested.
