Incident Response Playbooks Workshop is a practical programme for teams and individuals who need clear, executable response playbooks, not generic policy documents. You will learn how to turn an incident response lifecycle into step-by-step runbooks with decision points, owners, and outputs that hold up during real events. The approach is grounded in recognised incident handling guidance, including preparation, detection and analysis, containment, eradication, and recovery.
Delivered through mentor-led sessions, you will work through practical scenarios to design escalation paths, define evidence capture standards, and build “evidence packs” that support rapid investigation and defensible reporting. This includes aligning playbook steps to good forensic practice so actions are documented consistently and evidence handling remains disciplined.
Over two intensive days, you will leave with a playbook set you can adapt to your environment, plus templates for comms, handovers, and post-incident learning. We also reference how modern playbooks are structured in operational guidance, helping you map your runbooks to real-world incident types and response workflows. Aligned with recognised best practices including ISO, GDPR, NIST and SOC 2, ensuring skills remain practical and deployable in real organisations. All prices are exclusive of VAT (where applicable). Group enrolments and custom packages available.
Build and refine playbooks in workshops, using scenario simulations and peer review to produce usable runbooks and evidence packs.
