A.5.24 — Information security incident management planning and preparation
Requirement
The organisation shall plan and prepare for managing information security incidents by defining, establishing and communicating incident management processes, roles and responsibilities.
What the engine looks for
Every group below must be satisfied — by an affirmative statement, not a plan, a hedge or a denial — for the control to count as covered. A term ending in … matches any word it begins. Supporting terms do not change the verdict — they raise confidence and distinguish a policy that names a mechanism from one that gestures at a category.
Finding any of these outranks coverage — a policy that admits the gap is worse than silence.
Equivalent controls elsewhere
Matched on shared topics. Satisfying this control usually moves these too.
