An incident reporting protocol is a predefined set of steps for documenting and communicating security breaches or operational failures. This protocol outlines the procedures for identifying, analyzing, and formally reporting cybersecurity incidents, system malfunctions, or other critical events within an organization or network. It specifies who reports what, to whom, and within what timeframe, ensuring timely communication to relevant stakeholders and regulatory bodies. A robust protocol is essential for rapid response, mitigation, and compliance with disclosure requirements.
