Security Incidents
Record and track incident response stages, assessments, decisions, and timeline notes.
What this does
Report and track a security or privacy incident through its response stages, assessment, notification decision, and timeline.
Steps
- Open Incidents and select Report Incident. Enter the title, type, severity, detection time, and available affected-system, data-category, owner, and estimate details; add an initial action note and report it.
- Open the incident, review its current stage, and use Save assessment to record the response fields and timeline note. Select Advance to the next displayed stage when ready: Report, Triage, Investigate, Contain, Assess, Notification Decision, Resolved, then Closed.
- Record any breach assessment as a human review and enter a notification decision and status where appropriate. The timeline shows recorded changes and notes.
Result
Incident assessments and notification decisions are recorded for human review; PeopleOS does not make a legal determination or send external notifications. Do not enter passwords, tokens, raw breached records, or sensitive evidence. See Audit & Evidence.
