1.1.3 Roles and responsibilities in the incident response plan - In this episode, we dive into key insights from the AWS Certified Security - Specialty SCS-C02 Exam Guide, focusing on the critical task of designing and implementing an effective incident response plan in cloud environments. The guide stresses the importance of clearly defined roles and responsibilitiessuch as Incident Response Managers, Security Analysts, Cloud Engineers, Forensic Investigators, Communication Leads, and Executive Stakeholdersto ensure swift and coordinated action during a security incident. Each role carries specific duties, from detecting threats with AWS Security Hub and GuardDuty to isolating resources, managing communications, and preserving forensic evidence. The plan is anchored in the incident lifecycle preparation, identification, containment, eradication, recovery, and continuous improvement through lessons learned.
