During an incident response, a security manager drafts a report explaining why a data breach occurred. Which of the following is the most critical element for explaining 'why' the incident happened?
Recommendations
Root cause analysis
Executive summary
Timeline
To explain 'why' an incident happened, root cause analysis is essential. This analysis identifies the primary factors that led to the incident, providing a clear understanding of its origin. While the executive summary and timeline provide valuable context and structure, and recommendations suggest future actions, they do not directly address the root cause.
