Incident Severity Levels
A classification system used to categorize the severity of incidents, typically based on their impact on business operations, security, and legal compliance.
Incident Severity Levels are crucial for prioritizing response efforts and allocating resources effectively during an incident.
The classification often ranges from minor (Level 1) to critical (Level 5), with each level defining specific criteria for response times and actions.
Understanding and implementing these levels helps organizations to manage incidents systematically and ensures a consistent approach to incident handling.
