4.1 Incident Identification
Information security incidents can be interpreted differently by multiple people. To help define what security incidents need to be reported, the following list shows a few examples of what should be reported.
- Virus/malware on a production server
- Compromised account (email, active directory, Luminis, etc.)
- Stolen property that contains MSU data
- Strange network activity
- Major violation of one of the Information Technology Policies.
This list is by no means complete, but simply a guideline. If there is ever a doubt of whether or not to to report an incident, you can contact the Information Security Officer for more information.
4.2 Incident Report
Once the incident has been identified, alert the Information Security Officer via phone. Then fill out the Incident Response Form and send it to the Information Security Officer via email or fax.
